. The device was postfabricated using Pt as the working electrode material with a shifted electrode design, which makes it possible to redefine the size and the location of working electrodes. The system incorporating cell-sized (8 μm radius) microelectrodes was validated with dopamine injection tests and CV measurements of potassium ferricyanide at a 1 V/s scanning rate. The cyclic voltammograms were in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions. The technology enables rigorous characterization of electrode performance for the application of CMOS microelectrode arrays in low-noise amperometric measurements of quantal transmitter release as well as other biosensing applications.
