Abstract:
A new waveform which can be used instead of pulses for general electrical stimulation of the nervous system is described. This new waveform has been called the 'Zeta' pulse. The potential advantages of the use of this waveform are discussed together with a brief review and discussion of the mechanisms of extracellular stimulation in nervous tissue. A circuit diagram for the generation of the Zeta waveform is given.
