Abstract
A coil formed from a flexible polymer substrate that is printed with metal traces is disclosed in which the flexible substrate has notches that align each loop as the substrate is wound into a ring. The notches are precisely spaced so that the diameter of each loop is well controlled. As the substrate is wound, adhesive is applied along its length to fill gaps between each loop's layer. Ideally, the adhesive has a similar dielectric constant as the polymer substrate. The resulting coil has loops of metal traces separated by precise a thickness of dielectric. The precision in spacing between metal layers and dielectric allows the coil to be designed for self-resonance.
