Silicon-based hybrid energy cell for self-powered electrodegradation and personal electronics.
Silicon (Si)-based solar cell is by far the most established solar cell technology. The surface of a Si solar cell is usually covered by a layer of transparent material to protect the device from corrosion, contamination and mechanical damage. Here, we replaced this protection layer by a thin layer film of polydimethysiloxane nanowires. Based on this layer and using the conductive layer on the ...
متن کاملHybrid nanogenerator for concurrently harvesting biomechanical and biochemical energy.
Harvesting energy from multiple sources available in our personal and daily environments is highly desirable, not only for powering personal electronics, but also for future implantable sensor-transmitter devices for biomedical and healthcare applications. Here we present a hybrid energy scavenging device for potential in vivo applications. The hybrid device consists of a piezoelectric poly(vin...
متن کاملResonant frequency of bimorph triangular V-shaped piezoelectric cantilever energy harvester
The concept of “energy harvesting” is to design smart systems to capture the ambient energy and to convert it to usable electrical power for supplying small electronics devices and sensors. The goal is to develop autonomous and self-powered devices that do not need any replacement of traditional electrochemical batteries. Now piezoelectric cantilever structures are being used to harvest vibrati...
متن کاملCompact hybrid cell based on a convoluted nanowire structure for harvesting solar and mechanical energy.
IO N The harvesting of energy from the environment dates back to the age of the windmill and the waterwheel. Their modern counterparts are hydro-power plants, wind farms, solar farms, and more recently, novel piezoelectric devices [ 1 ] for power generation from mechanical vibration. [ 2 ] Fully utilizing power sources such as light, [ 3–5 ] thermal, and mechanical energy is of great importance...
متن کاملA hybrid energy cell for self-powered water splitting†
We fabricated a hybrid energy cell that consists of a triboelectric nanogenerator, a thermoelectric cell, and a solar cell, which can be used to simultaneously or individually harvest the mechanical, thermal, and solar energies. Instead of using an external power source, the hybrid energy cell can be directly used for self-powered water splitting to generate hydrogen. The volume of the produced...
