Systems and methods for stimulating neural tissue are disclosed. An array of optically emissive pixels is configured to deliver light to the neural tissue of a subject. Individual pixels within the array can be addressed to selectively illuminate a portion of the neural tissue when a neurological event occurs. The system can also include an array of microelectrodes in electrical communication with the array of pixels and a power source. A biocompatible substrate can be used to support the microelectrodes pixels, and the power source. A microelectrode circuit and a pixel circuit can also be supported by the biocompatible substrate.

Some embodiments include a method of providing an electronic device. The method can comprise: providing a first device substrate; providing one or more first active sections over a second side of the first device substrate at a first device portion of the first device substrate; and after providing the first active section(s) over the second side of the first device substrate at the first device portion, folding a first perimeter portion of the first device substrate toward the first device portion at a first side of the first device substrate so that a first edge portion remains to at least partially frame the first device portion. The first edge portion can comprise a first edge portion width dimension smaller than a first smallest cross dimension of one or more pixel(s) of one or more semiconductor device(s) of the first active section(s). Other embodiments of related methods and devices are also disclosed.
