Abstract

Rigid and flexible organic electrochemical transistor arrays are successfully implemented for monitoring cardiac action potentials. Excellent signal to noise ratios are achieved with values routinely larger than 4. These devices are promising to be used in both conventional and emerging areas.

Keywords: action potentials; bioelectronics; flexible electronics; organic electrochemical transistors; organic transistors.
