Hand‐Driven Gyroscopic Hybrid Nanogenerator for Recharging Portable Devices
With the rise of portable and wearable electronics, a fast‐charging, long‐lasting power solution is needed; thus, there are attempts to harvest energy from the ambient environment. Mechanical energy harvesting through piezoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerators (PENG and TENG) is a promising approach due to their light weight, low cost, and high‐power density in comparison to other technologies. Both types of generators are capable of charging portable and smart devices on their own by converting mechanical energy into electricity. However, most previous methods have excessive input conditions, such as high rpm and input frequency, that can be only applied with other actuators. Here, a hand‐held gyroscopic generator is presented that uses the gyroscopic principle to reach a rotation rate above 8000 rpm with only hand input. The generator comprises a rotating flywheel inside a casing. Both the flywheel and casing have a TENG, and with a hybrid generator, electrical power is produced from rotation, vibration, and centrifugal force during operation. The device shows a consistent open‐circuit voltage (VOC) of 90 V and a closed‐circuit current (ICC) of 11 µA with a frequency of 200 Hz. As a stand‐alone device, this generator can power portable sensors and smartphones through hand rotation.
