Two types of neurons were distinguished by their action potential shape. The time interval between the trough and the peak is plotted against the trough width in µs. The gray circles correspond to pyramidal neurons, while the black circles correspond to interneurons. The number of circles is lower than the overall number of neurons used for the plot since many points overlap due to the limited resolution of the recordings (25 µs between data points, corresponding to a 40 kHz sampling rate). Representative action potentials of each class of neurons are also shown.
