Wireless, battery-free, and real-time monitoring of water permeation across thin-film encapsulation

Abstract Long-term bioelectronic implants require stable, hermetic encapsulation. Water and ion ingress are challenging to quantify, especially in miniaturized microsystems and over time. We propose a wireless and battery-free flexible platform leveraging backscatter communication and magnesium (Mg)...
