Flexible hybrid cell for simultaneously harvesting thermal and mechanical energies

A flexible hybrid cell (HC) to simultaneously harvest thermal and mechanical energies is demonstrated. The output voltage and current of the HC can be well integrated under simultaneous working condition without sacrificing each output. We also demonstrate the possibility of scavenging both thermal...

description A flexible hybrid cell (HC) to simultaneously harvest thermal and mechanical energies is demonstrated. The output voltage and current of the HC can be well integrated under simultaneous working condition without sacrificing each output. We also demonstrate the possibility of scavenging both thermal and mechanical energies from skin temperature and body motion. This strategy can provide a highly promising platform as hybrid cells that simultaneously harvest multi-types of energy so that the energy resources can be effectively and complementarily utilized for power sensor network and micro/nano-systems. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
