Abstract

This invention discloses a flexible electrode array, system, and manufacturing method for closed-loop neural modulation, relating to the fields of neural engineering, medical devices, and biosensor technologies. The flexible electrode array includes a flexible biocompatible substrate, a recording electrode array, and a stimulating electrode array. The recording sites are arranged in a matrix, and the stimulating sites are coplanar with the recording sites, located between or within rows of the recording electrode array, achieving a spatially co-located layout of recording and stimulation. The system also includes an external control unit for receiving neural signals acquired by the recording electrode array and dynamically adjusting the stimulation parameters applied to the stimulating electrode array based on the neural signals. This application improves biocompatibility, achieves high-resolution signal mapping, and enables efficient closed-loop neural modulation by shortening the spatiotemporal distance between stimulation and monitoring.
