Claim 0:
1. A neural probe apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
a neural probe; and
a chip mounted on the neural probe, the chip including:
a high-density electrode array; and
a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) processor, wherein the high-density electrode array comprises:
a plurality of electrodes, each electrode of the plurality of electrodes includes:
a top drain;
a bottom source; and
a gate, the top drain being on an opposite side of the gate than the bottom source; and
a top electrode physically coupled to the top drain,

a wordline physically connected to the gate of each of the plurality of electrodes, each gate of the plurality of electrodes are controlled by a wordline voltage; and
a bitline physically connected to the bottom source of each of the plurality of electrodes, wherein each electrode of the plurality of electrodes is individually controlled by the wordline and the bitline and accessed via a cross-point.
