Factors Controlling the Distribution of Vesicular-Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Relation to Soil pH

This study presents a semiconducting optoelectronic system for light-controlled non-genetic neuronal stimulation using visible light. The system architecture is entirely wireless, comprising a thin film of nitrogen-doped ultrananocrystalline diamond directly grown on a semiconducting silicon substrate. When immersed in a physiological medium and subjected to pulsed illumination in the visible (595 nm) or near-infrared wavelength (808 nm) range, charge accumulation at the device-medium interface induces a transient ionic displacement current capable of electrically stimulating neurons with high temporal resolution. With a measured photoresponsivity of 7.5 mA W
