Piezoelectric nanogenerator based on ZnO nanorods

open access: yesArabian Journal of Chemistry, 2019
Abstract A piezoelectric nano-generator (PZG) based on in-house ZnO nanorods (ZnO NRs) was constructed and utilized. ZnO NRs were synthesized by tube-in-tube chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique for large production. To produce large harvested rods, the inner side of a horizontal quartz tube was used as growth platform directly without the aid ...
