Abstract | In this thesis, we successfully modelled and simulated MEMS/NEMS Piezoelectric (ZnO) energy harvester which can work under low frequency under ambient condition. In addition to our research work a prototype of an Energy Harvester has been developed. Our simulated energy harvester model showed maximum output voltage of 0.32 V. Maximum output voltage delivered from our prototype is approx. 87 mV. This energy harvester can be operated under low frequency ambient condition moreover after implementing further modification can be used in Wireless Sensor Nodes |
