Linear Single-Shank 16-Channel Probe, 5 mm
Sites spread along the shank — linear and edge layouts for depth profiling
A single mid-length shank with sites spread evenly down the shank, one per row, for a profile across depth. Among the 371 probe designs in the design space it is mid-range: 16 sites (a common choice — 84 of 369), 5 mm shanks (a common choice — 107 of 363), a 1.53 mm-deep site array (72nd percentile), 352 sites/mm² (60th percentile) and a 0.54 mm³ neural interface (41st percentile).
spaced for a laminar profile. The mid-length shank reaches structures a few millimetres down.
Orders as a probe-plus-package assembly, in 69 package configurations, 5 of them microdrive-compatible. Silicon 15 µm thick. Z-coat available. Research use only.
