Oscillation Characteristics of an Artificial Cochlear Sensory Epithelium Optimized for a Micrometer-Scale Curved Structure

Oscillation Characteristics of an Artificial Cochlear Sensory Epithelium Optimized for a Micrometer-Scale Curved Structure

Based on the modern microelectromechanical systems technology, we present a revolutionary miniaturized artificial cochlear sensory epithelium for future implantation tests on guinea pigs. The device was curved to fit the spiral structure of the cochlea and miniaturized to a maximum dimension of <...
