Tightly wrapped semiconductor-axon microtubes for probing hybrid networks: Modeling the capacitive coupling strength

Abstract

We present finite-element simulations modeling the electromagnetic interaction between axons and semiconductor microtubes. These tubes are tightly wrapped around the axons, enabling highly efficient capacitive coupling. The calculations reveal that the capacitive coupling strength is in the pA regime.
