The micro probe according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a probe portion made of a rigid material and serving as a portion inserted into the brain; a flexible portion connected to a distal end of the probe portion and made of a flexible material; a soluble portion coated on at least one surface of the flexible portion and made of a material which is dissolved by a solution in the cranium; and a body portion connected to the other end of the flexible portion whose one end is connected to the probe portion.

Micro probe and manufacturing method thereof

A tetrode for measuring bio-signals, the tetrode including four electrodes which extend in a lengthwise direction of the tetrode and are symmertrically arranged; and an insulation layer which surrounds the four electrodes to insulate the electrodes from each others. A method of manufacturing a tetrode for measuring bio-signals, the method including forming a first insulation layer; forming first and second electrodes on the first insulation layer and forming a second insulation layer on the first and second electrodes; and forming third and fourth electrodes on the second insulation layer and forming a third insulation layer on the third and fourth electrodes.

Tetrode for measuring bio-signals and method of manufacturing the same

This disclosure relates to a micro manipulator having a simple structure and having high possibility of recording a biological signal of a neuron at a desired position by improving positioning resolution of an electrode disposed adjacent to a subject's brain neuron or an electrode holder attached with the electrode. The micro manipulator according to the disclosure includes: a motor which includes a shaft and a vibration portion; a mobile which is connected to the shaft so as to be movable along the shaft; and a frame which supports the motor, wherein an electrode is connected to the mobile in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the shaft, and wherein when the mobile moves linearly in accordance with a vibration of the shaft due to the vibration portion, the electrode moves linearly.
