Energy harvesting from train vibrations

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, linear mechanical oscillators are designed to harvest energy from train-induced vibrations. The harvested energy could be used, for example, to charge sensors mounted on the rail track for structural health monitoring.

Recent Advances in Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Gas Sensors: From Sensing Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

Non‐Equilibrium Synthesis Methods to Create Metastable and High‐Entropy Nanomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stabilizing multiple elements within a single phase enables the creation of advanced materials with exceptional properties arising from their complex composition. However, under equilibrium conditions, the Hume–Rothery rules impose strict limitations on solid‐state miscibility, restricting combinations of elements with mismatched crystal ...

In‐Wheel Piezoelectric DC Power Generator With Zero Resistive Torque

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a wheel‐shaped direct‐current piezoelectric generator (DC‐PG) that fundamentally overcomes these constraints by producing phase‐stable DC electricity directly from rolling motion. By embedding this system into suitcase wheels, we demonstrated a fully integrated real‐time location tracking system powered solely by mechanical ...

Vibration piezoelectric energy harvesting

open access: yes, 2016
Energy harvesting is the conversion of ambient energy present in the environment into electrical energy, which is accumulated and stored for later use. It has the same principle as large-scale renewable energy generation (such as wind or solar power) but it is very different in scale.

A Dual‐Piezoelectric Metal–Organic Cage/COF Z‐Scheme Heterojunction for Solar‐Mechanical Water Splitting

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐piezoelectric Z‐scheme heterojunction is constructed by integrating a piezoelectric metal–organic cage (MOC‐FA3) with a β‐ketoenamine‐linked covalent organic framework (S‐COF). This design enables efficient solar‐mechanical energy conversion, achieving remarkable piezo‐photocatalytic pure water splitting for simultaneous H2 and H2O2 production ...
