Driving electrochemical reactions at the microscale using CMOS microelectrode arrays.

ABSTRACT: Precise control of pH values at electrode interfaces enables the systematic investigation of pH-dependent processes by electrochemical means. In this work, we employed high-density complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) microelectrode arrays (MEAs) as miniaturized systems to induce and confine electrochemical reactions in areas corresponding to the pitch of single electrodes (17.5 μm). First, we present a strategy for generating localized pH patterns on the surface of the CMOS MEA with unprecedented spatial resolution. Leveraging the versatile routing capabilities of the switch matrix beneath the CMOS MEA, we created arbitrary combinations of anodic and cathodic electrodes and hence pH patterns. Moreover, we utilized the system to produce polymeric surface patterns by additive and
