Inductive power transfer (IPT), which employs the principle of electromagnetic induction, is widely applied to wireless charging applications. The efficiency of an IPT system is highly dependent on the quality factor (Q) of the power resonant tank. In this paper, a novel design on the structure of the resonant coil is used in the resonant tank to achieve a significantly high Q above 1000 for the IPT system. Compensating capacitors are used in both primary and secondary circuits to align the resonant frequencies in order for the system resonant status to be maintained by a frequency tracking circuit. The experimental results show that with a primary coil Q of 1200, the proposed IPT system allows power to be transferred at a maximum air gap distance to coil diameter ratio of 1.46 for a highest efficiency of 87% at the resonant frequency of 106 kHz.

The surge in the number of distributed microelectronics and sensors requires versatile, scalable, and affordable power sources. Heat‐harvesting organic thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are regarded as potential key components of the future energy landscape. Recent advances in the performance of organic thermoelectric materials have made practical applications of organic TEGs more feasible than ever before, yet the challenges of designing and fabricating organic TEGs suitable for real scenarios are scarcely addressed. Specifically, small sensors and wearables demand for micro‐thermoelectric generators (µTEGs) with high power density architectures and small form factors, while typical demonstrations of organic TEGs are characterized by < 10 thermocouples (TCs) per cm². This work presents a rolled, organic µTEG architecture combining large‐area, solution‐based deposition techniques, such as inkjet and spray‐coating, and an ultrathin parylene substrate to achieve a thermocouple density of 1842 TCs cm⁻². Such demonstrative µTEG reaches a thermoelectric conversion performance of 0.15 µW cm⁻² at ΔT = 50 K. Such power output is well in line with finite element method simulations, which highlight the benefit of the architecture and show that remarkable power densities, in the mW cm⁻² range at ΔT = 10 K, are realistically achievable with geometrical improvements and already ongoing advancements in organic thermoelectric inks.
