MEMS-based waste vibrational energy harvesters

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === The piezoelectric effect is a phenomenon where strain on a piezoelectric crystal structure causes potential difference at its ends. By merging piezoelectric materials and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), mechanical vibration could caus...
