Lead zirconate titanate nanowire textile nanogenerator for wearable energy-harvesting and self-powered devices.

چکیده
Wearable nanogenerators are of vital importance to portable energy-harvesting and personal electronics. Here we report a method to synthesize a lead zirconate titanate textile in which nanowires are parallel with each other and a procedure to make it into flexible and wearable nanogenerators. The nanogenerator can generate 6 V output voltage and 45 nA output current, which are large enough to power a liquid crystal display and a UV sensor.

متن کاملHigh Discharge Energy Density at Low Electric Field Using an Aligned Titanium Dioxide/Lead Zirconate Titanate Nanowire Array
Polymer-based capacitors with high energy density have attracted significant attention in recent years due to their wide range of potential applications in electronic devices. However, the obtained high energy density is predominantly dependent on high applied electric field, e.g., 400-600 kV mm-1, which may bring more challenges relating to the failure probability. Here, a simple two-step meth...
متن کاملSelf-powered nanowire devices.
The harvesting of mechanical energy from ambient sources could power electrical devices without the need for batteries. However, although the efficiency and durability of harvesting materials such as piezoelectric nanowires have steadily improved, the voltage and power produced by a single nanowire are insufficient for real devices. The integration of large numbers of nanowire energy harvesters...
متن کاملA nanogenerator for energy harvesting from a rotating tire and its application as a self-powered pressure/speed sensor.
Harvesting unexploited energy in the living environment to power small electronic devices and systems is attracting increasing massive attention. [ 1–7 ] As the size of the devices has shrunk to the nanoor microscale, the power consumption also decreased to a modest level, i.e., the microwatts to milliwatts range. It is entirely possible to drive such a device by directly scavenging energy from...
