Extended Data Fig. 4: Benchtop validation of simultaneous optogenetic stimulation and electrical recording in PBS.

a, Experimental setup in which the device was submerged in PBS to simulate the electrical conduction of the body of a rat. The device performed simultaneous bilateral optical stimulation at 5 Hz (50% duty cycle) and electrical recording. The electrical signal was fed through PBS by a function generator that performed a cyclic frequency sweep (0.5 → 100 → 0.5 Hz) with a constant amplitude. b, Spectrogram showing recorded signal from the test. The signal showed clean frequency characteristics without interference from the μ-ILEDs, which would show as a horizontal band at 5 Hz if it existed. The video recording of the experiment is provided as Supplementary Video 1.
