Outline
Experimental design
(A) Aligned ZnO NWs grown on
-Al2O3 substrate.
(B) TEM image showing the NW
without an Au particle or with a
small Au particle at the top.
Each NW is a single crystal and
has uniform shape. Inset at
center: an electron diffraction
pattern from a NW. Most of the
NWs had no Au particle at the
top. Inset at right: image of a
NW with an Au particle
Conclusion
Self-powering nanotechnology ? Estimated power~ 10
pW/m2 and much more power if drives resonantly!
Use flexible substrate for scavenging energy produced
by acoustic waves, ultrasonic waves, or hydraulic
pressure/force or environment etc. for applications such
as implantable biomedical devices, wireless sensors,
and portable electronics
