AbstractUltra-compact wireless implantable medical devices (IMDs) are in great demand for healthcare applications, in particular for neural recording and stimulation. Current implantable technologies based on miniaturized micro-coils suffer from low wireless power transfer efficiency (PTE) and are not always compliant with the specific absorption rate imposed by the Federal Communications Commission, particularly for deep brain implantation where field attenuation and tissue loss are significant. Moreover, current implantable devices are reliant on recordings of voltage or current. This has two major weaknesses: 1) the necessary direct contact between electrode and tissue degrades over time due to electrochemical fouling and tissue reactions, and 2) the necessity for differential recordings across space. Here, we report, for the first time, an ultra-compact dual-band smart nanoelectromechanical systems magnetoelectric (ME) antenna with a size of 250×174 μm2 that can efficiently perform wireless energy harvesting and sense ultra-small magnetic fields such as those arising from neural activities. The proposed smart ME antenna has a wireless PTE 1~2 orders of magnitude higher than any other reported miniaturized micro-coil, allowing the wireless IMDs to be compliant with the specific absorption rate (SAR) limit and to operate under safe exposure of radio frequency energy. Furthermore, the magnetic sensing capability of the proposed smart ME antenna, with a limit of detection of 300~500pT at > 200Hz, should allow the IMDs to record neural magnetic fields from the brain without requiring differential recording.
