Optical phased array neural probes for beam-steering in brain tissue

Abstract

Implantable silicon neural probes with integrated nanophotonic waveguides can deliver patterned dynamic illumination into brain tissue at depth. Here, we introduce neural probes with integrated optical phased arrays and demonstrate optical beam steering in vitro. Beam formation in brain tissue was simulated and characterized. The probes were used for optogenetic stimulation and calcium imaging.
