Wearable and ubiquitous micro systems will be greatly growing and their related devices should be self-powered in order to avoid the replacement of finite power sources, for example, by scavenging energy from the environment. With ever reducing power requirements of both analog and digital circuits, power scavenging approaches are becoming increasingly realistic. One approach is to drive an electromechanical converter from ambient motion or vibration. Vibration-driven generators based on electromagnetic, electrostatic and piezoelectric technologies have been demonstrated. Among various generator types proposed so far, piezoelectric generator possesses considerable potential in micro system. To overcome low mechanical-to-electric energy conversion, the piezoelectric device should activate in resonance mode in response to external vibration. Normally, the external vibration excretes at low frequency ranging 0.1 to 200 Hz, whereas the resonant frequencies of the devices are fixed as constant. Therefore, keeping their resonant mode in varying external vibration can be one of important points in enhancing the conversion efficiency. We investigated the possibility of use of multi-bender type piezoelectric devices. To match the external vibration frequency with the device resonant frequency, the various devices with different resonant frequency were chosen.

Recently, as interest in the internet of things has increased, a vibration energy harvester has attracted attention as a power supply method for a wireless sensor. The vibration energy harvester can be divided into piezoelectric types, electromagnetic type and electrostatic type, according to the energy conversion type. The electromagnetic vibration energy harvester has advantages, in terms of output density and design flexibility, compared to other methods. The efficiency of an electromagnetic vibration energy harvester is determined by the shape, size, and spacing of coils and magnets. Generating all the experimental cases is expensive, in terms of time and money. This study proposes a method to perform design optimization of an electromagnetic vibration energy harvester using an open source, big data platform.

It is well known that electromagnetic (EM) waves are mode converted to electrostatic (ES) waves in inhomogeneous plasmas. We examine this issue in a three-dimensional multi-fluid numerical model. First, we derive a set of coupled linear wave equations when a one-dimensional inhomogeneous density profile is assumed in a cold and collisionless plasma. The massive ions are considered as fixed because we are interested in high frequency waves in plasmas. It is shown that the EM mode satisfies the 0th order modified Bessel equation near the resonant region where the frequency matches the local electron plasma frequency. It is expected that the EM waves are coupled and damped to the ES waves owing to the logarithmic singular behavior at such resonances. Second, we numerically test the same case in a 3-D multi-fluid model. An impulsive input is assumed to excite EM waves in the inhomogeneous 3-D box model. The wave spectra of electric and magnetic fields are presented and compared with the analytical results. Our results suggest that the EM energy is irreversibly converted into the ES energy wherever the resonant condition is satisfied. Finally we discuss how the mode conversion appears in both electric and magnetic fields by analyzing time histories of each component. We also compare our results with MHD wave coupling. It is numerically confirmed in this study that the coupling of EM and ES waves is similar to that of compressional and transverse MHD waves.

To match the external vibration frequency with the device resonant frequency, the various devices with different resonant frequency were chosen. Under an external vibration acceleration of 0.1G at 120 Hz, the device exhibited a peak-to-peak voltage of 2.8 V and a power of 0.5 mw in resonance mode.

다공성 탄소전극의 전위에 짜른 EDLC(e)ectric double-layer capacitor)특성을 조사하기 위해 복소캐패시턴스분석(complex capacitance analysis)을 수행하였다. 하나의 원통형 기공에 대해 복소캐패시턴스를 이론적으로 유도하였고, 기공의 분포를 고려하여 다공성 전극에 대하여서도 계산하였다. 복소캐패시턴스의 허수부를 주파수에 대해 도시하면 피크 형태의 곡선이 얻어지는데, 이때 피크의 면적은 캐패시턴스 값의 크기와, 피크의 위치는 다공성전극의 전기화학 파라매터와 기공구조에 의해 결정되는 $\alpha_0$와 상관관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이를 이용하면, 동일한 기공구조를 갖는 전극에 대해, 전위에 따른 캐패시턴스와 기공 내 이온전도도의 변화를 측정할 수 있다. 메조포러스 탄소전극에 대하여 전위를 변화시키며 electrochemical impedance spectroscopy를 측정하고 이를 복소캐패시턴스법에 의해 분석하였다. 피크 면적으로부터 구한 전위에 따른 캐패시턴스는 0.3V부근에서 최대값을 가졌는데, 이는 cyclic voltammetry 실험결과와도 일치하였다. 한편, 피크 위치로부터 구한 기공 내 이온전도도는 0.2V에서 최대 값을 가지고 전위가 증가할 수록 서서히 감소하였다. 이를 탄소 표면전하의 증가로 인해 이온/표면의 전기적 작용력이 커졌기 때문으로 해석하였다.

Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is one of ways to convert mechanical energy sound, waves, wind, vibrations, and human motions to available electrical energy. The principal mechanism to generate electrical energy is based on contact electrification on material surface and electrostatic induction between electrodes. The performance of TENG are dependent on amount of the input mechanical energy and characteristics of triboelectric materials. Furthermore, the whole TENG system including mechanical structure and electrical system can effect on output performance of TENG. In this work, we investigated the effect of gear train on output performance and power conversion efficiency (PCE) of TENG under a given input energy. We applied the gear train on mechanical structure to improve the contact rate. We measured the output energy under a constant input energy by controlling the size of the working gear. We prepared gears with gear ratios (rin/rw) of 1, 1.7, and 5. Under the constant input energy, the voltage and current from our gear-based TENG system were enhanced up to the maximum of 3.6 times and 4.4 times, respectively. Also, the PCE was increased up to 7 times at input frequency of 1.5 Hz. In order to understand the effect of kinematic design on TENG system, we performed a capacitor experiment with rectification circuit that provide DC voltage and current. Under the input frequency of 4.5 Hz, we obtained a 3 times enhanced rectifying voltage at a gear ratio of 5. The measured capacitor voltage was enhanced up to about 8 fold in using our TENG system. It is attributed that our gear-based TENG system could improve simultaneously the magnitude as well as the generation time of output power, finally enhancing output energy. Therefore, our gear-based TENG system provided an effective way to enhance the PCE of TENGs operating at a given input energy.

Electrospinning is a versatile technique that utilizes electrostatic forces to produce very thin and fine fibers of polymer ranging from submicron to nanometer scale. The technique can be applied to fibers of a various polymer types. Working parameters in the electrospinning are very important to understand not only the nature of electrospinning but also the conversion of polymer solutions into nanofibers through electrospinning. Those parameters in the electrospinning can be broadly divided into three parts. The first parameter is solution parameters such as molecular weight of polymer, concentration, viscosity, surface tension and conductivity/surface charge density of solution. The second parameter is process such as voltage, distance between the collector and the tip of the syringe, shape of collectors, flow rate. The third parameter is ambient parameters such as humidity and temperature. Fibers which made by electrospinning with working parameters are applied for various fields according to shape such as medical, cloth, photodiode, a sensor technology, catalyst, filtration, battery etc.
