High-Density μLED-Based Optical Cochlear Implant With Improved Thermomechanical Behavior

High-Density μLED-Based Optical Cochlear Implant With Improved Thermomechanical Behavior

This study reports the realization of an optical cochlear implant (oCI) with optimized thermomechanical properties for optogenetic experiments. The oCI probe comprises 144 miniaturized light-emitting diodes (μLEDs) distributed along a bendable, 1.5-cm-long, 350-μm-wide and 26-μm-thick probe shaft, i...
