Abstract
Piezoelectric nanogenerator (PNG) is a type of sensor that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy by detecting small-scale physical deformation. In this study, to realize a PNG, firstly polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) based electrospun nanofiber film is produced through electrospinning system. The obtained nanofiber film was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). After that, the PNG device was built as the capacitor by locating the PVDF electrospun nanofiber between two aluminum conductive plates and cabled. The piezoelectric energy harvesting analyses of the PNG was defined by taking measurements under various resistive loads. At a vibration frequency of 15 Hz, the effective voltage value of the PNG reached the maximum voltage of 62.6 mV under the resistive load of $750 \mathrm{K}\Omega$ while its electrical power was around $5.23 \mu \mathrm{W}$ under the same load. The PNG based energy harvesting system aims to obtain electrical energy from the natural vibrational sources for mobile microelectronics.
