Abstract
The fabrication of microelectrodes with conventional techniques using glass micropipettes or thin metal wires to record the electrical activity of nerve cells is faced with difficulties in controlling the dimensions and impedance of such electrodes (Frank and Beeker 1964). The same situation is encountered in the conventional fabrication of microelectrodes and mini-electrodes for ion-activity measurements.
This study was supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation and Swiss Foundation for Microtechnology Research.
