  1. 1. UV laser patterning of silicone-based soft electrode grids

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Maria Jakobsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Soft electrodes; Wearable electrodes; UV laser; Laser ablation; Laser curing; Polydimethylsiloxane; PDMS; Silver flakes; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

    Abstract : Roughly 123 million people worldwide are affected by conditions such as epilepsy, dementia, and cardiovascular diseases. Wearable electrodes are currently used to monitor these conditions short-term. Long-term monitoring would allow for predicting seizures and could be used as a preventive treatment. READ MORE

  3. 2. Robust and Biocompatible Bonding of Hybrid Microfluidic Devices Using Off-Stoichiometric Thiol-ene Thermosets

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Peter Harris; [2023]
    Keywords : OSTE; OSTE ; Microfluidics; Thermoset; Bonding; Thermoplastics; Biocompatibility; OSTE; OSTE ; Mikrofluidik; Härdplast; Binding; Termoplaster; Biokompatibilitet;

    Abstract : Some of the major obstacles the microfluidics industry has yet to overcome in order to facilitate large scale manufacturing of devices are costly back-end processes. Among these, bonding presents some of the most obvious difficulties and is often associated with structural deformation and surface modification. READ MORE

  4. 3. Design and engineering of light-driven dynamic films for bioelectronic interfacing

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Luca Terenzi; [2023]
    Keywords : Conductive polymers; Stimuli responsive materials; Azopolymers; Cell-chip coupling; Bioelectronics; Konduktiva polymerer; Stimuli-känsliga material; Azopolymerer; Cell-chip-koppling; Bioelektronik;

    Abstract : In the realm of neuroelectronics, the challenge lies in achieving finer observations of physiological processes to comprehend neuronal interactions and computations. This necessitates the development of more compliant and biomimetic interfaces for improved integration with biological tissues, enabling finer physiological process observations. READ MORE

  5. 4. Towards laser fabrication of soft neural electrodes

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Laboratoriet för organisk elektronik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : John Schill; [2022]
    Keywords : Stretchable electrodes; UV-laser ablation; Silver nanowires; 355 nanoseconds laser; electrode patterning; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

    Abstract : Electronic devices define our everyday lives. They are often large, rigid, and brittle. Modern medical science has come so far as to start using miniature electronic devices to monitor many types of diseases. READ MORE

  6. 5. Simulated cerebrospinal fluid motion due to pulsatile arterial flow : Master Thesis Project

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Jesper Hägglund; [2021]
    Keywords : Computational fluid dynamics; Fluid structure interaction; Pulsatile flow;

    Abstract : All organs, including the brain, need a pathway to remove neurotoxic extracellular proteins. In the brain this is called the glymphatic system. The glymphatic system works by exchanging proteins from interstitial fluids to cerebrospinal fluids. The extracellular proteins are then removed through the cerebrospinal fluid drains. READ MORE
