Demonstrating Vibrational Current Generation With a Self‐Assembled Bioelectret
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Vacuum‐deposited films of the plant‐derived molecule, Baicalein, form a self‐assembled bioelectret exhibiting spontaneous orientation polarization and a giant surface potential. The films induce alternating current during the vibration of a movable electrode without charging treatments. Hydrocarbon protection enhances the air stability of the Baicalein

Interaction‐Driven Assembly Pathways in Heterogeneous Active Microrobotic Systems
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Peanut‐ and cube‐shaped light‐powered microrobots exhibit distinct magnetic and photocatalytic responses that determine their heterogeneous self‐assembly. In the dark, magnetic dipole interactions drive colloidal copolymerization with cubes acting as nucleation centers, whereas under light irradiation, phoretic interactions compete with magnetic ...

Extremum Seeking control of smart inverters for VAR compensation [PDF]
2015 IEEE Power & Energy Society General Meeting, 2015 Reactive power compensation is used by utilities to ensure customer voltages are within pre-defined tolerances and reduce system resistive losses. While much attention has been paid to model-based control algorithms for reactive power support and Volt Var Optimization (VVO), these strategies typically require relatively large communications ...

Low-Cost Communication Interface between a Smart Meter and a Smart Inverter
Energies, 2023 The need for a low-cost interface between the grid and small (<250 kW) renewable distributed energy resources (DERs) is growing in importance as the number of small DERs continues to grow. In this study, a system architecture was proposed to investigate paths to an affordable interconnection for small renewable DERs.Then, a low-cost communication ...
