Description

A kind of photoelectric fiber-optical and production method for nervous activity regulation
Technical field
The invention belongs to bio-photon technical fields, and more particularly relating to one kind can grind in Neuscience and neurology Study carefully the light-operated electrode of optical fiber of field application.
Background technique
At present in Neuroscience Research field, most common nervous activity control technique has light genetic technique and electrode stimulating Technology.Light genetic technique directly stimulates the nerve fiber or brain area for expressing photogene in advance using specialty optical fiber conveying optical signal Domain, different nervous activities can be caused by carrying out multiple spot stimulation to light genetic nerve member different parts.Light genetic technique passes through adjusting The signal light of different wave length, power and pulse mode can relatively easily make neuronal excitation or the inhibition of specific region, reach To the neururgic effect of regulation.Meanwhile optical signal is accurately conveyed by optical fiber, so as to only stimulate regional area to It avoids and other is had an impact compared with far region.The corrosion-resistant and stability that fiber optic materials itself have, ensure that probe performance Reliably, it can be used for a long time.But the implementation of light genetic technique needs neuronal cell to express specific photosensitive protein, and photosensitive protein It is to be realized by transfecting specific photogene.The modification transformation of neuronal genes group is not only needed using gene technology stringent Experiment condition and consummate experimental technique, and the uncertain factors such as potential undershooting-effect also reduce transgenosis Success rate.Further, since transgenic technology can not be applied in human body easily, therefore light genetic technique is used for human nerve reparation With the treatment of certain neurological diseases, also considerable problem has to be solved.
Although electrode stimulating technology does not need transfection photogene can be adjusted the nervous activity of specific brain area, but Its field distribution is extensive, often have stimulated several neurons also it is related affect it is thousands of around or even a bulk of region all The precision of neuron, stimulation is difficult to ensure, is unable to satisfy the requirement of accuracy controlling.In addition, electrode used therein often uses metal It is made, is implanted into the corrosion being easy in brain tissue by iuntercellular electrolyte solution, can not often be used for a long time.
Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is being mentioned aiming at the problem that existing Neural stimulation electrodes can not be used for a long time A kind of photoelectric fiber-optical that can be used for neuromodulation electrode is supplied.
The technical scheme is that a kind of photoelectric fiber-optical for nervous activity regulation, including optical fiber, feature exist In: optical fiber connector has light to turn Electricity Functional part, can be used for the electrode of nervous activity regulation.
It is the photoelectric material mixed in optical fiber connector that light, which turns Electricity Functional part,.
The photoelectric material is GaAs, vulcanized lead, indium antimonide, lead tin telluride, mercury cadmium telluride, the sweet phthalein of sulfuric acid three, lithium tantalate, germanium Lead plumbate, magnesia or other optical signal can be converted into the material of electric signal by photoelectric effect or photovoltaic effect.
Light turns the PN junction that Electricity Functional part is photovoltaic semiconductors, by the Doped GaAs beryllium (p-type knot) for being deposited on optical fiber connector It is formed with Doped GaAs tellurium (N type junction).
Cone point, flat-top tip or recessed cone point are drawn into photoelectric fiber-optical doped region heating melting.
A kind of photoelectric fiber-optical production method for nervous activity regulation: it using sedimentation wants that cone is made in optical fiber first The region at shape tip deposits Doped GaAs beryllium and Doped GaAs tellurium respectively, forms the PN junction of photovoltaic semiconductors;Then optical fiber is made Prefabricated rods are drawn into photoelectric fiber-optical using fiber-pulling machine.
It is once drawn into cone point in photoelectric fiber-optical doped region heating melting, cone point is exactly to be doped with GaAs Mix the PN junction region of beryllium tellurium.
The principle of the technology of the present invention:
Photoelectric material is a kind of material that optical signal can be converted into electric signal by photoelectric effect or photovoltaic effect, works as signal When light irradiates above-mentioned photoelectric material, will generate electric field or free charge, these electric fields or charge in surrounding materials just be will affect Sodium on neuronal cell film, potassium-channel it is open or closed, and then regulate and control the activity of neuron.Probe shape is made in optical fiber Shape, while these photoelectric materials are adulterated on probe tip, light-operated electrode has just been made.The light-operated electrode is pierced into experimental animal Specific brain area, optical fiber tail portion injection specific wavelength light, when being transferred to probe tip region, so that it may excite photoelectric material Specific electric field or charge are generated, the neururgic purpose of regulation is reached.
The technology of the present invention the utility model has the advantages that
It is to be not required to the expression of photogene, therefore side using electric field or charge stimulation neuron on this novel optical fiber electrode principle Just simple, the experimental cost greatlyd save, and for having potential value in terms for the treatment of the certain neurological diseases of the mankind;It is this Light-operated electrode body uses extremely fine optical fiber probe, and the electric field that photoelectric material generates can be confined near material molecule, It thus can locally regulate and control, the neuron compared with far region can not interfered with.Fiber optic materials itself have easy to manufacture, corrosion resistant excellent Point, thus can be used for a long time.The light-operated electrode of optical fiber of the present invention combines photoelectric material with optical fiber probe, can pass through certain wave The light of long, power and pulse mode excitation probe position generates the electric field of some strength, carries out to peripheral neurons cell reversible Electro photoluminescence and regulation.Have the characteristics that corrosion-resistant, easy to control, local modulation and can quantify, in Neuscience and neurology It is had a good application prospect in research field and the treatment of certain neurological rehabilitations.It is stimulated compared to ordinary electrode, this light Usually only several microns of probe tip of fine light-operated electrode, it is more very thin than ordinary electrode, thus to neururgic regulation in sky Between it is upper more accurate.
