Adaptive damage-durable electronic epineurium for long-term stable soft neuroprosthetics |
초록 |
Soft neuroprosthetics capable of monitoring sensory signals and delivering feedback motor information have pursued the perfect replacement for damaged nerves. Although such efforts have been made to the long-term stability of the peripheral neural interfaces, nerve compression and device fatigue issues still remain challenging due to the lack of optimal materials that simultaneously meet tissue-device modulus matching, biocompatibility, and electrical/mechanical self-recovery. Here, we report an adaptive self-recoverable electronic epineurium that can prevent its electrical degradation induced by repetitive deformation. Such performances originate from its unique mechanical properties: i) spontaneous rearrangement of Au nanoshell-coated Ag flakes dispersed in a self-healing polymer and ii) dynamic stress relaxation of the electronic epineurium enabling its mechanical adaptation to nerve modulus. Finally, we successfully demonstrate stable bidirectional neural recording and stimulation. |
