A complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor-compatible fabrication technique for ultrathin silicon chips of arbitrary shape is reported. It combines deep reactive ion etching and wafer grinding to define the in-plane geometry and thickness of the chips, respectively. Neural probes with shaft lengths up to 12 mm and thicknesses down to 25 μm were fabricated.
Herwik et al. (2011) studied this question.
