Computational Thermal Analysis of the Photothermal Effect of Thermoplasmonic Optical Fiber for Localized Neural Stimulation In Vivo

Optical neuromodulation is a versatile neural stimulation technology that enables highly localized excitatory or inhibitory stimulation of neuronal activities. Photothermal neural stimulation using thermoplasmonic metallic nanoparticles for light to heat conversion has been suggested as an optical n...
