Implanted neural stimulation and recording devices hold vast potential to treat a variety of neurological conditions, but the invasiveness, complexity, and cost of the implantation procedure greatly reduce access to an otherwise promising therapeutic approach. To address this need, we have developed a novel electrode…

Nerve stimulation via micro-electrode implants is one of the neurostimulation approaches which is used frequently in the medical treatment of some brain disorders, neural prosthetics, brain-machine interfaces and also in the cyborg. In this method, the electrical stimulation signal can be categorized by the frequency…

Cyborg in the brain-machine interface field has attracted more attention in recent years. To control a creature via a machine called cyborg method, three stages are considerable: stimulation of neurons, neural response, and the behavioral reaction of the subject. Our main concern was to know how electrical stimulation…

The existing Finite Element Modeling (FEM) fails to model the real electric field that activates a neuron, because the computation capability is insufficient to represent the neural tissue down to an atom-level. Thus, to reveal the real electrode-tissue interactions, we adopt the idea of using a circuit to simulate…

There has been a long history in electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), which has been used for medical and interaction purposes. Humancomputer interaction (HCI) researchers are now working on various applications, including virtual reality (VR), notification, and learning. For the electric signals applied to the human…

Few investigations have been conducted on selective stimulation of small-radius unmyelinated C nerves (C), which is critical to both recoveries of damaged nerves and pain suppressions. The purpose of this study is to understand how an anodal pulse in an anodal-first stimulation could improve C-selectivity over…

Regulating the state of the solid-liquid interface by means of electric fields is a powerful tool to control electrochemistry. In scanning probe systems, this can be confined closely to a scanning (nano)electrode by means of fast potential pulses, providing a way to probe the interface and control electrochemical…

Enzymes are reported to catalyze reactions by generating electric fields that promote the evolution of the reaction in the active site. Although seldom used outside enzymatic catalysis, electrostatic preorganization theory and the language of electric fields can be generalized to other biological macromolecules. Here…
