| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, it is aimed to develop a nanoscale needle device with the needle length of more than 100 μm, which length enables intracellular electrical measurement and DNA introduction into cell for thick biological tissues including brain slice and brain in vivo. In order to realize the > 100-μm-long nanoneedle devices, we have proposed the nanoscale-tipped silicon microneedle device by sharping the tip portion of the silicon microneedle, which can be vertically assembled on a silicon substrate by gold-catalyzed selective vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) crystal growth of silicon. The fabrication process is based on the silicon growth and subsequent micro/nanofabrication processes. We explored the mechanical and electrical characteristics of the proposed nanoelectrode, and demonstrated the intracellular recording capabilities using mouse’s muscle cells ex vivo and mouse’s brain tissue in vivo.
