Electret Length Optimization of Output Power for Double-End Fixed Beam Out-of-Plane Electret-Based Vibration Energy Harvesters
Thanks to miniaturization, it is now possible to imagine self-powered systems that can harvest energy from the environment to produce electrical energy. Out-of-plane electret-based vibration energy harvesters (E-EVHs) are an effective and inexpensive energy harvester type that has attracted much attention. Increasing the capacitance of variable capacitors is an effective way to improve the outp...
متن کاملSensor Design for Piezoelectric Cantilever Beam Energy Harvesters
Energy harvesting for the purpose of powering low power electronic sensor systems has received explosive attention in the last few years. A common device uses the piezoelectric effect for a cantilever beams at resonance to harvest ambient vibration energy. However most of these devices have a rectangular piezoelectric patch covering all or part of the beam. This paper considers the optimum desi...
متن کاملSelf-Biased Inductor-less Interface Circuit for Electret-Free Electrostatic Energy Harvesters
This paper presents a simple and efficient interface circuit for electrostatic energy harvesting devices, which uses neither controlled electronic switch nor inductor. A built-in voltage multiplier enables to get bias voltages higher than the circuit output voltage, resulting in an increased power output. This interface circuit was implemented using off-the-shelf components. Its operation was v...
متن کاملSmart Flat Membrane Sheet Vibration-Based Energy Harvesters
The dynamic responses of membrane are completely dependent on Pre-tensioned forces which are applied over a boundary of arbitrary curvilinear shape. In most practical cases, the dynamic responses of membrane structures are undesirable. Whilst they can be designed as vibration-based energy harvesters. In this paper a smart flat membrane sheet (SFMS) model for vibration-based energy harvester is ...
متن کاملElectret-based Energy Harvesting Device with Parylene Flexible Springs
A MEMS vibration-driven electret generator for energy harvesting has been developed. Parylene high-aspect-ratio flexible spring is employed to support the seismic mass with high-performance patterned electret. The seismic structure enables large in-plane oscillation amplitude of 1 mm and low resonant frequency of 37Hz. With our early prototype, we have obtained 21 Vp-p voltage output, correspon...
