ABSTRACT We report here a simple and effective approach, named scalable

sweeping-printing-method, for fabricating flexible high-output nanogenerator (HONG) that can

effectively harvesting mechanical energy for driving a small commercial electronic component.

The technique consists of two main steps. In the first step, the vertically aligned ZnO nanowires

(NWs) are transferred to a receiving substrate to form horizontally aligned arrays. Then, parallel

stripe type of electrodes are deposited to connect all of the NWs together. Using a single layer of

HONG structure, an open-circuit voltage of up to 2.03 V and a peak output power density of ∼11

mW/cm3 have been achieved. The generated electric energy was effectively stored by utilizing

capacitors, and it was successfully used to light up a commercial light-emitting diode (LED),

which is a landmark progress toward building self-powered devices by harvesting energy from the

environment. This research opens up the path for practical applications of nanowire-based

piezoelectric nanogeneragtors for self-powered nanosystems.

The mechanism of converting mechanical energy by a single ZnO NW that is laterally bonded to a

substrate has been discussed in details in our previous report. 13 Owing to much smaller diameter

of the NW compared to the substrate thickness, outward bending of the substrate induces a

uniaxial tensile strain in the NW. Because of the piezoelectric property of the ZnO NW, the

stress results in a piezoelectric field along the length, which causes a transient charge flow in the

external circuit. The Schottky contact at the bonded ends can regulate the charge flow. As a

result, the bending and releasing of the single-wire-NG gives rise to an alternat-ing flow of the

charges in the external circuit. In this work, the power output has been scaled up with the

integration of hundreds of thousands of horizontally aligned NWs, which was made by a scalable

sweeping-printing-method that is simple, cost-effective, and highly efficient.

机械能量转换的机制,由一个单一的氧化锌西北是粘结基体横向已经详细讨论了在我们先前的报告。13因为较小的直径比基体厚度西北,拓展弯曲基底的单向拉伸应变诱发在西北方向移动。由于压电特性的氧化锌NW应力导致压电场沿长度,使一个暂时的费用流的外部电路。肖特基接触,保税结束,能调节电荷的流动。作为一个结果,弯曲和释放的single-wire-NG产生一个alternat-ing流量的费用在外部电路。在这部作品中,输出功率已经扩大了于一体的成千上万的横向对齐NWs,由一个可扩展的sweeping-printing-method,简单、高效,效率高。

The method consists of two main steps. In the first step, the vertically aligned NWs are

transferred to a receiving substrate to form horizontally aligned arrays. The major components

of the transfer setup are two stages (Figure 1a). Stage 1 has a flat surface that faces downward

and holds the vertically aligned NWs; stage 2 has a curved surface and holds the receiving

substrate. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) film on the surface of stage 2 is used as a cushion layer

to support the receiving substrate and enhances the alignment of the transferred NWs. The radius

of the curved surface of stage 2 equals the length of the rod supporting the stage, which is free to

move in circular motion (Supporting Infor-mation Figure S1). In the second step, electrodes are

depos-ited to connect all of the NWs together.

该方法包括两个主要的步骤。在第一步,垂直地对齐NWs是转移到一个接收基体形成横向对齐的数组。主要部件的安装两个阶段转移(图1)。阶段1有一个平面朝向下且具有垂直地对齐NWs;舞台2有一个曲面并持有接收板上。以聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)的油膜将摩擦表面上的第二阶段作为垫层支持接收基体和提高对准的转让NWs。曲面的半径相等的第二阶段杆的长度支持阶段的产物,是自由移动圆心的运动(支持彻底图S1)。第二步,depos-ited电极连接所有的新创建在一起。

(Figure 1b, Supporting Information Figure S2). The same growth direction of NWs guarantees

the alignment of the piezoelectric potentials in all of the NWs and a successful scaling up of the

output, which will be elaborated later. A small piece of Si substrate with grown ZnO NWs was

mounted onto stage 1 (Figure 1a) and a piece of Kapton film with the thickness of 125 µm was

attached to stage 2 (Figure 1a). The distance between the receiving substrate and NWs was

precisely controlled to form a loose contact between the two. The receiving substrate then

counterclockwise swept across the vertical NWs arrays, which were detached from Si substrate

and aligned on the receiving substrate along the direction of sweeping due to the applied shear

force (Figure 1a). The as-transferred NWs are presented in Figure 2c with an estimated average

density of 1.1 × 106 cm-2. The length variation is probably due to the fact that not all of the

NWs were broken off at the roots.

followed by sputtering 300 nm thick Au film (Figure 1d). After lifting off the photoresist, 600

rows of stripe-shaped Au electrodes with 10 µm spacing were fabricated on top of the horizontal

NW arrays (Figure 1e). Au electrodes form Schottky contacts with the ZnO NWs, which are

mandatory for a working NG. 8,18 Approximately 3.0 × 105 NWs in an effective working area of

1 cm2, as pointed by an arrowhead in Figure 1d (inset), are in contact with electrodes at both ends.

Finally, a PDMS packaging over the entire structure can further enhance mechanical robustness

the induced piezopotential is also aligned, leading to a macroscopic potential contributed

constructively by all of the NWs (Figure 2b).

诱导piezopotential也是对齐,导致了宏观潜在的建设性的便利(图2 b)。

To investigate the performance of the HONG, a linear motor was used to periodically deform the

HONG in a cyclic stretching-releasing agitation (0.33 Hz). The open-circuit voltage (Voc) and

the short-circuit current (Isc) were measured with caution to rule out possible artifacts. 19 At a

strain of 0.1% and strain rate of 5% s-1, peak voltage and current reached up to 2.03 V and 107 nA,

respectively. Assuming that all of the integrated NWs actively contribute to the output, the

current generated by a single NW is averaged to be ∼200 pA; and the voltage from each row is ∼3.3 mV in average. Considering the size of the working area of the nanogenerator (1 cm2)

(Figure 1e, inset), a peak output power density of ∼0.22 µW/cm2 has been achieved, which is

over 20-fold increase compared to our latest report based on a more complex design. 14 For

nanowires with the diameter of ∼200 nm, the power volume density is ∼11 mW/cm3, which is

12-22 times of that from PZT based cantilever energy harvester. 6,7 The durability test and further

characterization were performed, which prove the stability and robustness of the HONGs

(Supporting Information Figure S3). Voltage linear superposition test verified the proposed

working principle of the HONGs (Supporting In-formation Figure S4).

探讨香港的性能,从而建立了一个线性马达是用来定期变形的循环stretching-releasing风潮在香港(0.33赫兹)。寄生偏置电压(Voc)和短路电流(Isc)测定了注意排除可能失真。19在紧张的0.1%和应变率为5% s-1、峰值电压和电流达到2.03伏特和107钠,分别。假设所有的综合NWs积极促成输出,当前的产生是由一个单一的西北平均是∼200名乘客,电压由每一行是∼平均3.3 mV。考虑工作区域的大小的nanogenerator(1平方厘米)(图1 e、插图),峰值功率密度的0.22∼µW /平方厘米已经实现,超过增加了20我们的最新报告相比,基于一个更复杂的设计。14与直径的奈米线∼200海里,电源体积密度是∼11 mW / cm3,这是12-22倍之压电悬臂梁的基础能源的矿车。6、7个耐久性试验和进一步进行了表征,证明了稳定性和鲁棒性的HONGs(提

供的信息图S3)。电压线性叠加的验证工作原理的基础上提出HONGs(支持图(S4)接受方)。

Further scaling up the power output is expected to be technically feasible. If NWs can be

uniformly and densely packed as a monolayer over the entire working area, and all can actively

contribute to the output, the maximum power area density is expected to reach ∼22 µW/cm2.

The power volume density is anticipated to be improved up to ∼1.1 W/cm3. With 20 layers of

such NW arrays stacked together, the power area density would be boosted up to ∼0.44 mW/cm2.

进一步提高输出功率预计将技术上可行。另外,如果可以统一作为一个单层密集在整个工作区域,都能积极促成输出,最大功率面积密度预计达到22∼µW /平方厘米。电源体积密度有望得到改善到1.1 W / cm3∼。与20层的堆叠在一起西北阵列,电力面积密度将提升到∼0.44 mW

/平方厘米。

The performance of the HONG is affected by strain and strain rate. For a given strain rate (5%

s-1), an increase in strain leads to a larger output (Figure 3a,b). Likewise, at a constant strain

(0.1%), the output is proportional to the strain rate (Figure 3c,d). Beyond a certain strain and

strain rate, saturation of the magnitude occurs, probably due to the converse piezoelectric effect,

which is the strain created by the piezopotential and it is opposite to the externally induced strain.

It is noticed that 0.1% strain is sufficient to induce effective output, which is much smaller than

the 6% fracture strain of the ZnO NW predicted theoretically.20

香港的性能受应变及应变率。对于一个给定的应变率(5% s-1),提高应变导致一个更大的输出(图3 a,b)。同样的,在一个恒应变(0.1%),输出是成正比的应变率(图3 c、d)。超过一定的应变及应变率、饱和度级的发生,可能是因为其逆压电效应,这是由piezopotential应变,它相对于外部诱发紧张。人们注意到足以引起0.1%应变有效输出,这远远低于6%的断裂应变的氧化锌西北theoretically.20预测

Storing the generated energy and driving functional devices are extremely important steps toward

practical applications of the nanogenerator. In this work, they were accomplished by using a

charging-discharging circuit with two consecutive steps (Figure 4). The circuit function is

determined by the status of a switch (Figure 4a inset). The
