Abstract：
:Microwire array electrodes are important in multi-site, multiple single-unit recording experiments. A simple method is described herein for the construction of microwire arrays consisting of evenly spaced insulated microwires in either horizontal or vertical orientations. Several key steps in the fabrication of a good microwire array electrode are made easier with this method. These steps include (1) arranging microwires into a desirable configuration, (2) keeping track of microwire sequences, and (3) soldering microwires to closely packed slots. This method needs only general mechanical tools and is relatively simple even for inexperienced workers.
