A microelectrode is a small electrode with a diameter typically in the micrometer range, often used in electrophysiological studies and in various applications in biomedical research, neuroscience, and materials science. Due to their small size, microelectrodes can be inserted into individual cells or tissues, allowing for precise measurements of electrical activity, ion concentrations, or other chemical properties at a very localized level.
