Ultrasound intra body multi node communication system for bioelectronic medicine

The coming years may see the advent of distributed implantable devices to support bioelectronic medicinal treatments. Communication between implantable components and between deep implants and the outside world can be challenging. Percutaneous wired connectivity is undesirable and both radiofrequency and optical methods are limited by tissue absorption and power safety limits. As such, there is a

Nonlinear charge-voltage relationship in constant phase element

The constant phase element (CPE) or fractional-order capacitor is an electrical device that has an impedance of the form Z(s)=1/Cαsα, where Cα is the CPE parameter and α is a fractional dispersion coefficient of values between 0 and 1. Here we show that in the time-domain the classical linear charge-voltage relationship of ideal capacitors, q=C·v, is not valid for CPEs. In fact the relationship is

Active circuit model of low-frequency behavior in perovskite solar cells

The low-frequency impedance hook in perovskite solar cells (PSC) is a feature that has been frequently associated with the behavior of passive circuits of inductors or negative capacitances. However, if the experimental impedance data do not transform according to the Kramers-Kronig (KK) relations, the system does not fulfill the conditions of linearity, stability, causality and finiteness
