Implanted bioelectrode based on photoetching and other micro-nano manufacturing technologies and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses an implanted bioelectrode based on photoetching and other micro-nano manufacturing technologies and a preparation method thereof. As for the bioelectrode, a metal core wire is coated with an insulating sleeve provided with a spiral metal lead, the spiral metal lead and the insulating sleeve are encapsulated in a polyurethane insulating layer, and an excitation point and a connection end metal ring are respectively connected with the spiral metal lead reserved at the two ends; and the surface of the excitation point is electroplated with inert metal oxides. The technology deposits a layer of metal membrane on the polyurethane insulating sleeve by sputtering or evaporation; the deposited metal membrane is manufactured into an initial spiral structure by the technologies of photoetching, micro contact stamping and etching; the final spiral metal lead is shaped by electro-deposited metal; the sleeve penetrated by the metal core wire is placed in an encapsulating die for encapsulation; a layer of iridium oxide is electroplated on the excitation point, thus enhancing cell adhesiveness and biocompatibility; and the bioelectrode is manufactured after finishing and conductivity test.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an implantable bioelectrode, in particular to an implantable bioelectrode manufactured based on micro-nano manufacturing techniques such as photolithography. Background technique [0002] Today's medicine treats serious neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease and epilepsy by implanting electrodes in the patient's body. However, the commonly used implanted electrodes mainly use artificial or machine-wound spiral wires as connecting wires, and traditional mechanical processing The metal tube serves as the stimulating end. This kind of spiral wire usually leads to stress concentration and deformation inside the wire, and the material and size of the metal wire on the market are limited, resulting in restrictions on selection. In addition, its price is relatively high, which increases the difficulty and difficulty of electrode manufacturing. cost. The traditional mechanically processed metal tube has more disadvantages:...
