The ability to harvest energy from the environment represents an important technology area that promises to eliminate wires and battery maintenance for many important applications and permits deploying self powered devices. This paper suggests the use of a solar energy harvester to charge mobile phone devices. In the beginning, a comprehensive overview to the energy harvesting concept and technologies is presented. Then the design procedure of our energy harvester was detailed. Our prototype solar energy harvester proves its efficiency to charge the aimed batteries under sunlight or an indoor artificial light.
