Mechanical metamaterial piezoelectric nanogenerator (MM-PENG): Design principle, modeling and performance

Piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) has been reported as a green energy solution that generates electrical power from mechanical deformations resulted in the environment. Here, a novel design concept of PENG is reported based on mechanical metamaterials (MM). Plate-like MM with piezoelectric material...
