Abstract
This paper presents the first design of a corrugated polyimide-based electrode with the intention to improve the neuro-technical interface. The corrugation is achieved through tempering the polyimide substrate within a moldform, which is fabricated via precision mechanics. Mechanical properties, load-displacement and strength of shape measurements before and after corrugation are examined and evaluated for three different dimensions of moldforms.
