AbstractPiezoelectric nanogenerators (PNGs) have been studied as renewable energy sources. PNGs consisting of organic piezoelectric materials such as poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) containing oxide complex powder have attracted much attention for their stretchable and high-performance energy conversion. In this study, we prepared a PNG combined with PVDF and lanthanum-modified bismuth titanate (Bi4−XLaXTi3O12, BLT) ceramics as representative ferroelectric materials. The inserted BLT powder was treated by high-speed ball milling and its particle size reduced to the nanoscale. We also investigated the effect of particle size on the energy-harvesting performance of PNG without polling. As a result, nano-sized powder has a much larger surface area than micro-sized powder and is uniformly distributed inside the PNG. Moreover, nano-sized powder-mixed PNG generated higher power energy (> 4 times) than the PNG inserted micro-sized powder.

A concept of energy harvesting from vortex-induced vibrations of a rigid circular cylinder with two piezoelectric beams attached is investigated. The variations of the power levels with the free stream velocity are determined. A mathematical approach including the coupled cylinder motion and harvested voltage is presented. The effects of the load resistance, piezoelectric materials, and circuit combined on the natural frequency and damping of the vibratory system are determined by performing a linear analysis. The dynamic response of the cylinder and harvested energy are investigated. The results show that the harvested level in SS and SP&PS modes is the same with different values of load resistance. For four different system parameters, the results show that the bigger size of cylinder with PZT beams can obtain the higher harvested power.

MEMS Energy Harvesting(EH) devices are excepted to grow in the upcoming years, due to the increasing aspects of MEMS EH devices in vast applications. In Recent advancements in energy harvesting (EH) technologies wireless sensor devices play a vital role to extend their lifetime readily available in natural resources. In this paper the design of MEMS Cantilever at low frequency (100Hz) with different piezoelectric materials Gallium Arsenide (GaAs), Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT-8), Tellurium Dioxide (TeO2), Zinc oxide (ZnO) is simulated and performance with different materials are compared. The results are analyzed with various parameters such as electric potential voltage, von mises stress, displacement. The paper discusses the suitability of the piezoelectric material for MEMS fully cochlear implantable sensor application.
