New nanogenerators achieve 140-fold power density gain, could rival solar cells | If a traditional nanogenerator produces ten milliwatts of power, this new technology could increase that output to over 1,000 milliwatts.
University of Surrey's ATI unveils new nanogenerators with a 140-fold power density boost, potentially rivaling solar cells.
Surrey’s devices can convert small amounts of everyday mechanical energy, like motion, into a significantly higher electrical power, similar to how an amplifier boosts sound in an electronic system. “The dream of nanogenerators is to capture and use energy from everyday movements, like your morning run, mechanical vibrations, ocean waves, or opening a door. Innovations like these will enable us to drive new spin-out activities in sustainable health tech, improve sensitivity, and emphasize industrial scalability,” said Dr Bhaskar Dudem, Research Fellow.
