Helmers, A. Franke, D. Lackner, O. Höhn, F. Predan, D. Frank 51% efficient photonic power converters for O-band wavelengths around 1310 nm
Various miniaturized energy harvest devices, such as TENGs and PENGs for mechanical motion/vibration energy, photovoltaic devices for solar energy, and thermoelectrics for thermal energy, can be coupled with MESDs to effectively convert renewable energy sources into electricity and conserve energy.
The superior electrochemical performance of miniaturized devices makes the PIMBs promising candidates for MESDs to replenish other miniaturized energy harvest/conversion devices and to integrate with related microsystem applications.
Miniaturized energy storage devices (MESDs), with their excellent properties and additional intelligent functions, are considered to be the preferable energy supplies for uninterrupted powering of microsystems.
However, a wide-ranging survey from the early design to latter target-oriented electrode manufacturing and the integrated application of MESDs including the miniaturization of batteries, supercapacitors, and hybrid metal ion capacitors (HMICs), is still highly desirable.
