However, the large sensitive area is necessary to accommodate enough thermoelectric couples (TCs) for a high thermoelectric performance. This limits the potential in micro energy harvesting and ultra-sensitive sensing applications. Here, we adopted an optimized MEMS-based process to fabricate the ultra-sensitive micro-thermoelectric device (μ-TED). With the help of MEMS-compatible electrochemical deposition, the small size (25 μm), high aspect ratio (1:1.25), and alternating distributed P/N structures are achieved. As a result, the μ-TED realizes an ultra-high integration density of 19,900 thermoelectric couples per cm<sup>2</sup>. Moreover, it shows a great thermoelectric sensitivity of 212 mV/(K·cm<sup>2</sup>) and a competitive power factor of 0.51 μW/(K<sup>2</sup>·cm<sup>2</sup>), which means the μ-TED is competent for miniaturized applications. Additionally, the μ-TED shows an ultra-low detection limit of 5 mm/s and a short response time of 100 ms, revealing great potential in fast detections of the ultra-low airflow. Furthermore, the ultra-sensitive μ-TED is utilized as a flexible breath sensor, due to its compact size. The breath signal of different motion states is successfully detected.

Pre-charged CMUTs operating in constant-charge mode eliminate the DC bias and this mode of operation is more suitable for ultrasound power transfer to IMDs. We designed and fabricated a novel pre-charged CMUT structure with a built-in charge storage capacitor. This new configuration features a floating electrode between the upper and lower electrodes. Charges are stored on this floating electrode prior to implantation by directly bringing the floating electrode into contact with the bottom electrode while applying a DC bias between the top and bottom electrodes of the CMUT. After pre-charging the CMUT, the charges are retained without any leakage, as confirmed by occasional measurements over the course of about two years. We have also demonstrated that this device allows operation without a DC bias and can be used as a power receiver in an IMD. In the presented design, the CMUT can be pre-charged at a desired precise charge level. The amount of trapped charge can be controlled by holding the floating electrode in contact with the bottom electrode by applying external ultrasound pressure and simultaneously maintaining a DC bias.
