Abstract
A device can include a first compliant optrode. The first compliant optrode can be introduced into a tissue sample and can include a stack of flexible waveguide materials providing a first optical interface. The stack of flexible waveguide materials can have a thickness of less than about 100 microns. The first compliant optrode can be linear and can be configured to bend at a turn radius of less than about 300 microns.
