Graphical Abstract

Doppelläufige Kohlenstoff-Nanosonden mit integrierter Abstandskontrolle für die simultane elektrochemische und Ionenleitfähigkeitsmikroskopie mit breit variierbarer Sondengröße lassen sich in weniger als zwei Minuten herstellen. Die Nanosonden ermöglichen die kontaktfreie topographische (links) und elektrochemische Abbildung (rechts) lebender Neuronen, und sie eignen sich zur lokalen K+-Abgabe bei simultaner Detektion von Neurotransmittern.
