Abstract:
An electrode arrangement comprising:a first plurality of electrodes that are conductively coupled to one another; wherein the first plurality of electrodes comprises an odd integer number of electrodes that are in a stacked alignment with one another; a paired set of electrodes pluralities comprising, a second plurality of electrodes that are conductively coupled to one another, and a third plurality of electrodes that are conductively coupled to one another; a material positioned to insulate the first plurality of electrodes from the paired set of electrode pluralities; wherein the material insulates the second plurality of electrodes from the third plurality of electrodes; wherein the paired set of electrode pluralities is interleaved with the first plurality of electrodes; wherein the paired set of electrode pluralities is arranged between and inset substantially within at least two electrodes of the first plurality of electrodes; wherein one electrode of the first plurality of electrodes is positioned between the paired set of electrode pluralities and is the central electrode of the electrode arrangement.
