“…Functional groups including hydroxyls, carboxyls and amines were mostly introduced via ozonolysis, plasma activation, acid or base treatment, and so forth. 5 However, these approaches may deteriorate the mechanical/electronic properties of carbon materials, and the functional groups generated are often unstable under certain catalysis conditions.…”

“…This is caused by the presence of van der Waals inter-tube forces. 8 Therefore, significant efforts have been made, in the last few years, to find appropriate methodologies that solubilise pristine CNTs via chemical functionalization 9 making them biocompatible and possibly biodegradable. 10 In general, CNT functionalization can be achieved using two main approaches; non-covalently via supramolecular adsorption or by wrapping different functional molecules onto the tube, or otherwise using covalent functionalization onto the conjugated skeleton via various reactions.…”

Low impedance at the interface between tissue and conducting electrodes is of utmost importance for the electrical recording or stimulation of heart and brain tissue. A common way to improve the cell-metal interface and thus the signal-to-noise ratio of recordings, as well as the charge transfer for stimulation applications, is to increase the electrochemically active electrode surface area. In this paper, we propose a method to decrease the impedance of microelectrodes by the introduction of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), offering an extremely rough surface. In a multistage process, an array of multiple microelectrodes covered with high quality, tightly bound CNTs was realized. It is shown by impedance spectroscopy and cardiac myocyte recordings that the transducer properties of the carbon nanotube electrodes are superior to conventional gold and titanium nitride electrodes. These findings will be favorable for any kind of implantable heart electrodes and electrophysiology in cardiac myocyte cultures.
