Abstract

An implantable electrode arrangement includes an electrically insulating carrier structure and an electrically conductive layer including an electrically conductive thin film layer. The electrically conductive thin film layer is structured to form at least one implantable electrode. The at least one implantable electrode has a local fractalization through a self-similar structuring chosen such that a mechanical resonance of the electrode in response to electric excitation with an excitation voltage is minimized.
