Nanofiber Mats

Self-powered nanogenerators composed of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) have received much attention. Solution blow spinning (SBS) is a neoteric process for preparing nanofiber mats with high efficiency and safely, and SBS is a mature fiber-forming technology that offers many advantages over conventional electrospinning methods. Herein, we adopted the SBS method to prepare independent PVDF nanofiber membranes (NFMs), and successfully employed them as nanogenerators. Finally, we tested the change in the output current caused by mechanical compression and stretching, and studied its durability and robustness by charging the capacitor, which can drive tiny electronic devices. The results show that the PVDF nanogenerators by using this SBS equipment can not only be used in wearable electronic textiles, but are also suitable for potential applications in micro-energy harvesting equipment.

Triboelectric Nanogenerators

Abstract Harvesting abundant mechanical energy has been considered one of the promising technologies for developing autonomous self-powered active sensors, power units, and Internet-of-Things devices. Among various energy harvesting technologies, the triboelectric harvesters based on contact electrification have recently attracted much attention because of their advantages such as high performance, light weight, and simple design. Since the first triboelectric energy-harvesting device was reported, the continuous investigations for improving the output power have been carried out. This review article covers various methods proposed for the performance enhancement of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), such as a triboelectric material selection, surface modification through the introduction of micro-/nano-patterns, and surface chemical functionalization, injecting charges, and their trapping. The main purpose of this work is to highlight and summarize recent advancements towards enhancing the TENG technology performance through implementing different approaches along with their potential applications. Graphic Abstract This paper presents a comprehensive review of the TENG technology and its factors affecting the output power as material selection, surface physical and chemical modification, charge injection, and trapping techniques.

AbstractThis paper reports for the first time the experimental demonstration of a wireless sensor node only powered by an aeroacoustic energy-harvesting device, meant to be installed on an aircraft outside skin. Aeroacoustic noise is generated on purpose to serve as a means of converting mechanical energy from high velocity airflow into electrical energy. Results related to the physical characterization of the energy conversion process are presented. The proposed aeroacoustic transducer prototype, consisting in a rectangular cavity fitted with a piezoelectric membrane, is shown to deliver up to 2 mW AC power under Mach 0.5 airflow. Optimized power management electronics has been designed to interface with the transducer, including a self-powered Synchronized Switch Harvesting on Inductor (SSHI) interface circuit and an efficient buck-boost DC/DC converter. The design of micropower auxiliary circuits adds functionality while preserving high efficiency. This circuit stores energy in supercapacitors and is able to deliver a net output DC power close to 1 mW. A fully autonomous system has been implemented and tested, successfully demonstrating aeroacoustic power generation by supplying a battery-free wireless datalogger in conditions representative of an actual flight.
