Читать книгу Hybridized and Coupled Nanogenerators - Ya Yang - Страница 9

Scavenging multiple energies from our living environment is of critical importance to meet stable and sustainable energy needs. Various energies such as mechanical, thermal, and solar energies are not always available at the same time due to the weather or the working conditions. Nanogenerators are based on utilizing the Wang term ∂P_s/∂t as the driving force to convert energies into electricity, regardless of whatever used materials are nano or not. The purpose of developing hybridized and coupled nanogenerators is to simultaneously or individually scavenge multi‐mode energies from the environment; while hybridized nanogenerators are based on integrating the different nanogenerators into a system to scavenge the same or different energies for enhancing the energy conversion efficiency, and coupled nanogenerators are based on one material and one structure‐based energy scavenging device with the same electrodes but different energy harvesting functionalities. Several new physical effects including pyro‐phototronic effect, ferro‐pyro‐phototronic effect, and thermo‐phototronic effect are based on the coupled nanogenerators; while both the pyro‐phototronic effect and thermo‐phototronic effect are focused on the semiconducting materials, the ferro‐pyro‐phototronic effect is focused on the ferroelectric materials. These physical effects have potential applications in solar cells, photodetectors, light emission diodes, and so on.

In this book, we present a comprehensive discussion about the design, performance, and applications of hybridized and coupled nanogenerators. The recent advancements have been summarized including wind‐driven triboelectric nanogenerators, electromagnetic–triboelectric hybridized nanogenerators, photovoltaic–pyroelectric coupled nanogenerators, multi‐effects coupled nanogenerators, and some new physical effects. The advantages and challenges of hybridized and coupled nanogenerators are discussed, and related perspectives on the opportunities for materials and new physical effects have been summarized.

Chapter 1 (contributor: Ya Yang) introduces the overall development of hybridized and coupled nanogenerators. The hybridized nanogenerators include hybrid energy cells, electromagnetic–triboelectric hybridized nanogenerators, and other hybridized nanogenerators. The coupled nanogenerators include pyroelectric and photovoltaic coupled nanogenerators and multi‐effects coupled nanogenerators. The corresponding applications are also discussed.

Chapters 2 and 3 (contributors: Yang Wang, Ya Yang) discuss the recent development of wind‐driven triboelectric nanogenerators and electromagnetic–triboelectric hybridized nanogenerators. The different working mechanisms with the different devices are introduced. The device working modes, structures, materials, performances, and applications are summarized.

Chapter 4 (contributors: Kai Song, Ya Yang) introduces the other hybridized nanogenerators, which includes hybridized photoelectric and piezoelectric nanogenerators, hybridized photoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerators, and hybridized photoelectric and pyroelectric nanogenerators.

Chapter 5 (contributors: Bangsen Ouyang, Ya Yang) summarizes the various devices by hybridizing nanogenerators and sensors. The sensors include pressure, strain, temperature, and magnetic sensors, and photodetectors. The performance parameters of these sensors include sensitivity, response speed, and stability.

Chapters 6 and 7 (contributors: Ding Zhang, Ya Yang) discuss the recent progress in the development of hybridizing nanogenerators and energy storage devices for simultaneous energy harvest and storage, and thermal energy technologies including pyroelectric and thermoelectric nanogenerators. Focus will be on materials selection, structure designs, performance optimization, and potential applications of different nanogenerators and nanogenerator‐based energy harvest and storage devices. Particularly, the effects of nanomaterials with various morphologies and different structure designs on the performance of devices are compared and analyzed systematically. Finally, the opportunities, challenges, and perspectives these devices face within the energy field are discussed.

Chapters 8 and 9 (contributors: Yun Ji, Ya Yang) introduce recent advancements of multi‐effects coupled nanogenerators, including photovoltaic–pyroelectric effect nanogenerator, pyro‐piezoelectric effect nanogenerator, tribo‐piezo‐pyro‐photoelectric effect nanogenerator, and so on. The two chapters emphasize the working principle, materials, device configuration, output performance, and application of the multi‐effects coupled nanogenerators. Particularly, pyroelectric effect, photovoltaic effect, thermal effect, piezoelectric effect, triboelectric effect, and interactions among them are described in detail. Multifunctional ferroelectrics and semiconductors are introduced, such as BaTiO₃, BiFeO₃, ZnO, and SnS. State‐of‐the‐art device structure and the relevant output electric signals (output current, voltage, and power) are presented. Applications of the multi‐effects coupled nanogenerators in the area of energy‐storage device charging, photodetection, multifunctional sensing, and image sensing are reviewed.

Chapter 10 (contributor: Ya Yang) elaborates the three new physical effects, which are based on coupled nanogenerators. Pyro‐phototronic effect is based on the three‐way coupling among semiconductor, pyroelectricity, and photoexcitation. The ferro‐pyro‐phototronic effect is based on the three‐way coupling among ferroelectric materials, pyroelectricity, and photoexcitation. The thermo‐phototronic effect is based on the three‐way coupling among semiconductor, thermoelectricity, and photoexcitation.
