Method for providing a substrate structure for oriented neurite outgrowth, substrate structure, and device for monitoring neurons

摘要

The invention relates to a method for providing a substrate structure for oriented neuron growth, wherein a basic substrate is provided, characterized in that at least one alignment layer is deposited on said substrate and a mono- or multi-layer of a liquid crystal material is deposited on said at least one alignment layer or a combined alignment layer comprising liquid crystal material is deposited on said basic substrate, thereby providing a structured surface.
