Radio Wave Induced Firing Of Neurons Through Ca2+ Channel Manipulation

In summary, neurons can be induced to fire by manipulating the Ca2+ channels through certain radio wave frequencies, resulting in an internal/external charge differential. Further insight into this phenomenon can be found by referencing the text book or paper that states this.

TL;DR Summary
Can neurons be induced to fire by manipulating the Ca2+ channels via radio wave electromagnetic energy?
I’ve read that the Ca2+ channels in neurons can be manipulated through the use of certain radio wave frequencies. And the resulting internal/external charge differential will cause the neurons to fire.
Does anyone have any more insight into that?
