Pericardium-inspired conformal three-dimensional multifunctional integumentary membrane (3D-MIM) for optical stimulation. (A) The 3D-MIM substrate is created by capturing the 3D geometry of the heart, rendering a solid model, and casting and curing a thin silicone elastomer. Scale bar, 2 cm. (B) A representative image of the 3D-MIM deployed on a Langendorff-perfused rabbit heart with u-ILEDs, pH sensors, and temperature sensors that cover both the anterior and posterior sides of the heart. Scale bar, 6 mm. (C) Detailed view of each type of sensor that is integrated into the 3D-MIM. Scale bars, 500 um. Reproduced from Xu et al. (2014).
