چکیده

Multifunctional black-silicon (b-Si) integrated on the surface of an implantable intraocular pressure sensor significantly improves sensor performance and reliability in six-month in vivo studies. The antireflective properties of b-Si triples the signal-to-noise ratio and increases the optical readout distance to a clinically viable 12 cm. Tissue growth and inflammation response on the sensor is suppressed demonstrating desirable anti-biofouling properties.

Nanoarray-enhanced Implantable Intraocular Pressure Sensor with Remote Optical Readout

We demonstrate a compact implantable intraocular pressure sensor with remote optical readout for glaucoma research and patient management. Using broadband white light between 7801150nm, we excite the sensor’s pressure-sensitive optomechanical cavity and detect the reflected light, whose optical signature changes as a function of intraocular pressure. When measured inside an artificial pressure ...

Ultraminiature encapsulated accelerometers as a fully implantable sensor for implantable hearing aids.

Experiments were conducted to evaluate a silicon accelerometer as an implantable sound sensor for implantable hearing aids. The main motivation of this study is to find an alternative sound sensor that is implantable inside the body, yet does not suffer from the signal attenuation from the body. The merit of the accelerometer sensor as a sound sensor will be that it will utilize the natural mec...

Silicon electronics on silk as a path to bioresorbable, implantable devices.

Many existing and envisioned classes of implantable biomedical devices require high performance electronicssensors. An approach that avoids some of the longer term challenges in biocompatibility involves a construction in which some parts or all of the system resorbs in the body over time. This paper describes strategies for integrating single crystalline silicon electronics, where the silicon ...
