This image shows the concept of implantable optoelectronic devices for epilepsy and visual prosthesis. A sub-image shows the electric fields between key sub-components of the brain interface within the encapsulation layer. It is these electric fields that are responsible for degradation mechanisms.
Really proud that our (heavily delayed by COVID) groundbreaking method to improve the lifetime of optoelectronic implants by 100-fold has been published in IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering.
