1. A system for sensing biological pressure, comprising:

  • an implantable device comprising a first membrane structure, a second membrane structure, and a plurality of nanophotonic components adapted to reflect light, wherein the first and second membrane structures are separated by a gap and the first membrane structure is movable with respect to the second membrane structure in response to a change in ambient pressure such that the implantable device has a resonance wavelength that shifts as a size of the gap changes; and

    a reader unit adapted to transmit optical light to the implantable device and detect the resonance wavelength of the implantable device based on light reflected from the implantable device.
