Figure | Integrated Metasurface-Enabled Photobiomodulation and Neural Simulation Platform.  (a) A clinical scenario illustrating a patient wearing a virtual reality (VR) headset guiding wireless THz-band stimulation through a programmable metasurface patch targeting the retina or neural tissues. (b) Schematic representation of a metasurface-mediated bioelectronic interface receiving controlled photonic input to deliver spatially selective stimulation without the need for internal power sources or complex electronics. (c) Biophysical model integrated with metasurface stimulation and cytochrome c activation, enabling dynamic membrane potential modulation and intracellular signaling relevant to therapeutic outcomes such as cancer apoptosis or neuronal rehabilitation.
