A current-mode system to self-measure temperature on implantable optoelectronics

Abstract Background One of the major concerns in implantable optoelectronics is the heat generated by emitters such as light emitting diodes (LEDs). Such devices typically produce more heat than light, whereas medical regulations state that the surface temperature change of medical implants must sta...
