Normann, Richard A.; Maynard, Edwin M. | Neural interface for a cortical vision prosthesis | The development of a cortically based vision prosthesis has been hampered by a lack of basic experiments on phosphene psychophysics. This basic research has been hampered by the lack of a means to safely stimulate large numbers of cortical neurons. Recently, a number of laboratories have developed a... | Neuroprosthetics; Artificial Vision; Electrode Arrays; Multielectrode Recordings; Biocompatibility | 1999 |

Normann, Richard A.; Abbasi, Masoud; Johansson,Torbjorn | Silicon carbide enhanced thermomigration | The widespread acceptance of thermomigration technology to produce through-chip interconnects has been impaired by (i) a random walk of the Si-Al liquid eutectic inclusion as it traverses the wafer, and (ii) a ?surface barrier? which allows thermomigration of only relatively large inclusions.

Normann, Richard A. | Signal transmission from red cones to horizontal cells in the turtle retina | 1. Intracellular recordings were made from L-type horizontal cells in the retina of the turtle Pseudemys scripta elegans. The responses were evoked by 500 msec pulses of 'white' light. 2. L-type horizontal cells were classified as either, 'small receptive field' s.r.f. or 'large receptive field' l.r... | Turtles; Synapses; Retina; Photoreceptors | 1979 |
