Tiny generators for tiny sensors
Nanosensors – sensor devices built at the nanoscale (1/100,000 the width of a human hair) – need energy to run. Nanobatteries are one approach under development. Another technology is nanogenerators, nanoscale devices that create electricity from the mechanical energy provided by the environment such as wave action, wind motion, and body movement. Researchers at the [...]
