The lateral line organs of the sea eel consist of canal and pit organs which are different in function. The former is a low frequency vibration detector whereas the latter functions as an ion receptor as well as a mechano receptor.The fine structure of the sensory epithelia of both organs were studied by means of ordinary transmission electron microscope, high voltage electron microscope and of surface scanning electron microscope.The sensory cells of the canal organ are polarized in front-caudal direction and those of the pit organ are polarized in dorso-ventral direction. The sensory epithelia of both organs have thinner surface coats compared to the surrounding ordinary epithelial cells, which have very thick fuzzy coatings on the apical surface.

The development and utilization of different structural materials, optimization of the cantilever geometry and power harvesting circuit are the most commonly methods used to increase the power density of MEMS energy harvester. This paper discusses the cantilever geometry optimization process of low power and low frequency of bimorph MEMS energy harvester. Three piezoelectric materials, ZnO, AlN and PZT are deposited on top and bottom of the cantilever Si substrate. This study focuses on the optimization of the cantilevers length, width, substrate thickness and PZe thickness in order to achieve lower than 600 Hz of resonant frequency. The harvested power for this work is in the range of 0.02 ~ 194.49 nW.
