Sustainable Energy Harvesting for Self-Powered Micro/Nanosystems Enabled by Nanotechnology

The section provides an overview of energy collecting techniques that have the ability to energize nanosystems. The focus of our discussion is on methods apart from the well-known solar panel and thermoelectrics. The piezo nanomaterials made using aligned ZnO nanowire arrays are the focus of this paper. This is a base improving in manufacturing sector for transforming movement energy, vibration energy, and hydraulic energy into power for self energized nanostructures.
