Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure describes aspects of a multiphysics energy harvester for implants. In some aspects, an apparatus includes a multiphysics energy (MPE) harvester to harvest energy from at least a first and second type of wireless power transfer signal. The MPE harvester includes a first harvesting component configured to react to the first type of wireless power transfer signal, effective to harvest energy from the first type of wireless power transfer signal. The MPE harvester also includes a second harvesting component that is integral with the first harvesting component. The second harvesting component is configured to react to the second type of wireless power transfer signal simultaneously as the first harvesting component reacts to the first type of wireless power transfer signal. The reactions of the second harvesting component are effective to harvest energy from the second type of wireless power transfer signal.
