Untreated wastewater harbors dangerous pathogens, chemicals, and pollutants, posing grave public health threats. Nowadays, there is a rising demand for eco-friendly technologies for wastewater treatment. Recently, piezoelectric materials-based wastewater treatment technology has captured considerable interest among researchers because of its noninvasiveness and rapidity. Herein, a highly efficient piezoelectric composite material is designed with chitosan-incorporated bismuth ferrite (BFO) nanocrystals, to decompose pollutants and ablate bacteria in wastewater. On one hand, piezoelectric BFO has shown exclusive piezo-coefficient for ultrasound-mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. On the other hand, chitosan depicts its biocompatible nature, which not only promotes cellular adhesion but also significantly elevates the ROS production capabilities of BFO under ultrasound. The synergistic effect of these two piezoelectric units in one composite entity shows an improved ROS production, eradicating ∼87.8% of Rhodamine B within 80 min under soft ultrasound treatment (rate constant, k ≈ 0.02866 min−1). After performing the scavenger experiment, it has been found that hydroxyl radicals are the dominating factor in this case. Further, the reusability of the composite piezocatalyst is confirmed through multiple cycles (five times) of the same experiment. The high polarizability of the composite material facilitates the generation of piezoelectric power through finger tapping (∼12.05 V), producing substantial instantaneous piezo-voltage. Moreover, the sample exhibits remarkable antibacterial activity, with nearly 99% bacterial eradication within 30 min. This indicates a significant advancement in utilizing biopolymeric composites incorporated with BFO for fabricating versatile devices with multidimensional applications.

Energy harvesting from natural resources has gained much attention due to the huge increase in the demand for portable electronic devices and the shortage of conventional energy resources in general. In the present work, the fabrication and realistic applications of a piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) using polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and the abundantly available, environment-friendly natural fiber Sonchus asper (SA) have been discussed. The biocompatible, low-cost SA fibers were flexible enough and showed high piezoelectric properties as active materials in the study. The SA pappus based piezoelectric nanogenerator demonstrated its ability to convert the harvested biomechanical energy into electrical energy from the various mechanical energy sources available in our environment. The SA pappus/PDMS thin film based piezoelectric nanogenerator (SPENG) fabricated in the laboratory showed colossal output performances (open circuit output voltage, VOC ∼81.2 V; short circuit current, ISC ∼1.0 μA) by continuous finger impartation. Uniform output performance was also obtained by the application of uniform force on the devices (e.g., ∼42 V for 5 N force at 10 Hz frequency). The SPENG was capable to charge a 2.2 μF capacitor to 3.2 V within a short time span (16 s) under continuous finger impartation and illuminate 39 commercial high-power blue LEDs that were connected in series. Thus, the fabricated SPENG can be used as a green and portable energy source to power up portable electronic devices. Apart from this, the SPENG may also be used as a self-powered energy supply for pacemakers or different types of health care units if properly improvised.

Piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) have been emerged as one of the most promising approach for harvesting energy from the movement of living system for low‐power electronic devices. Herein, a simple PENG and single‐electrode triboelectric nanogenerator (STENG) are reported that execute tremendous output performance. In zirconium oxide (ZrO2)/poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF‐HFP) nanocomposite polymer, ZrO2 acts as the nucleating agents for electroactive polymorph nucleation and also enhances the dielectric constant (≈23). Compared with previously reported PVDF‐HFP‐assisted prototype nanogenerators, this developed PENG exhibits excellent piezoelectric energy‐harvesting performance with very high power density, high energy conversion efficiency and high durability. The PENG exhibits a large value of open‐circuit voltage ≈120 V and short‐circuit current ≈1.95 μA under periodic finger imparting with high power density ≈7091 μW cm−3. Fabricated flexible PENG is capable to instantaneously light up commercially available 55 number of blue light emitting diode connected in parallel connection through bridge rectifier. High capacitor charging performance is also observed, such as 2.2 μF capacitor charged up to 3.5 V, in just 17 s time interval. Single‐electrode‐based TENG fabricated by this composite film also shows remarkable output voltage ≈7 V under finger touch.

Herein, biocompatible Ca3(PO4)2 nanorods incorporated poly(vinylidene) difluoride films have been prepared via in situ process. A good piezoelectricity ( d33 ~ 56.6 pC/N) along with large dielectric constant ~ 3.48 x 105 at frequency 20 Hz has been achieved. Then we have designed biocompatible, highly durable, low cost piezoelectric nanogenerator (CPNG) which shows the superiority in open circuit voltage ~ 47 V and current ~ 1.8 µA generation with power density ~ 47.4 mWcm-¬3 under gentle touch of finger. Excellent mechanical to electrical energy conversion efficiency (~ 65.5 %) of our developed CPNG leads to fast charging a capacitor of 1 µF in 18 s and glowing up 26 LEDs under finger impartation. Further, a portable light charging power pack (LCPP) has been developed using the high dielectric film as storage function. Under light illumination our LCPP generate open circuit output voltage ~ 1.29 volt with short circuit current 5.7 mAcm-2. Areal capacitance ~ 1779 Fm-2 and storage efficiency ~ 88 % are achieved. The device is able to lighten up 22 LEDs for 10 days after charging by once.

American Chemical Society (ACS)
In the present work, we propose a simple and unique approach to design a lightweight, low-cost, self-charging power cell with considerable capacity to generate and store photocharges named self-charged photo-power cell (SCPPC). Initially, highly electroactive sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-incorporated poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) composite thin films with a large dielectric constant of ∼525 are synthesized via a simplistic solution casting process. Then, the as-prepared high-dielectric SDS/PVDF thin film is used as a charge-storage medium in combination with an inorganic-organic dye film, i.e., ZnO nanoparticles-eosin Y-poly(vinylpyrrolidone) film, as a photoelectron generator in our SCPPC. An open-circuit voltage of ∼1.2 V is attained after charging SCPPC under illumination light with intensity ∼110 mW/cm2 and then discharging fully with a constant current density of ∼4.5 mA/cm2. A specific areal capacitance of ∼450 F/m2 is obtained with large energy and power densities of ∼90 mWh/m2 and 54 W/m2, respectively. The improved overall efficiency, ∼3.78%, along with 89% storage efficiency leads to promising application possibilities of our rechargeable photo-power cell. The recyclability, i.e., rechargeability and storage durability, of the photo-power cell are also checked for 35 days without no such reduction in voltage generation and storage. Also, multicolored light-emitting diodes are lightened up using the photo-power cell as power source.

Herein, we have successfully designed two ecofriendly, biocompatible, and cost-effective devices, i.e., a piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) and a self-charged photo-power cell (PPC) by developing a multifunctional cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) modified montmorillonite (MMT) incorporated poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) thin film with large electroactive β crystallites and dielectric properties. Incorporation of CTAB modified MMT in PVDF leads to nucleation of piezoelectric β crystallite (F(β)) ∼ 91% as well as the dielectric constant ∼48 at 3 mass % doping of CTAB-MMT. The enrichment of the electroactive β phase crystallization and high dielectric constant pilot to a good piezoelectricity (d33) ∼ 62.5 pC/N at 50 Hz of the thin film. Our CTAB-MMT/PVDF based PENG (CMPENG) with superior piezoelectricity shows high output power generation with power density ∼ 50.72 mW/cm3 under periodic finger impartation and having the ability to charge a 1 μF capacitor up to 2.4 V within 14 s under gentle finger im...

AbstractMethylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3), a hybrid perovskite has become the semiconductor for case studies in several material properties due to its multi‐faceted electronic application. Other than photovoltaics, generation of piezoelectricity from hybrid perovskites has been reported previously, though its origin remained unsubstantiated. In this report, MAPbI3 with different degrees of crystal defects as determined by positron annihilation spectroscopy are developed through ball‐mill grinding procedure and utilized to fabricate flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators. We have demonstrated that at room temperature the lattice defects play the pivotal role in governing the ionic polarization which in principle governs the piezo‐effect in MAPbI3. The best device performance is exhibited by maximum defect containing sample having significant amount of Pb2+ defects. A device fabricated with 5 wt% PDMS composite produces piezo‐voltage of more than 100 V with a maximum power density of 0.3 mW/cm3 and can illuminate commercially available 30 blue light emitting diodes.

AbstractA simple photovoltaically self‐charging energy‐storage system (PSESS) has been fabricated as an effective solar energy‐storage power cell. The PSESS is capable of the in situ storage of visible light energy in the form of electrical energy. The PSESS is assembled on a photoelectrode (fluorine‐doped tin oxide) that contained a dye‐sensitized and hole‐trapping phenosafranine–polyvinylpyrrolidone film in association with an electroactive and highly dielectric chlorochalcone–polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film, in which photogenerated electrons are stored. Here, chlorochalcone particles act as a catalytic agent for electroactive β crystal nucleation, visible‐light emission, and the improved dielectric value of the composite thin films. A proportion of 85 % electroactive β phase nucleation and a high dielectric constant (≈60) are achieved by incorporating 20 mass % chlorochalcone in PVDF. The self‐charging capability of the PSESS was verified under a light illumination intensity of 110 mW cm−2. The PSESS was charged up to 0.95 V under light illumination. Moreover, the device wass discharged with a constant current density 1.25 mA g−1 for a long time (≈560 min) after the light was switched off. The photogenerated energy and charge density of the PSESS are approximately 5.25 mWh g−1 and 42 C g−1, respectively. The maximum capacitance attained under the light illumination is approximately 44 F g−1, which is many times greater than two‐electrode self‐charged photovoltaic cells reported previously. A blue light‐emitting diode can be driven by using the PSESSs as a power bank.
