Abstract
By the demand for renewable, eco-friendly, and portable energy sources, micro/nanofluidic generators have been studied extensively. Single-pore–based generators received great attention due to their high power density approaches up to 106 Wm−2, while led to research using membranes to produce large amounts of energy. However, the energy efficiency of the membrane-based generator is still limited, further researches are necessary. Herein, we report hydrophobic membrane-based generator which could achieve streaming conductance density as high as 79.6 μA/cm2 bar and output voltage of 0.25 V and current of 0.14 mA by the interaction between water and hydrophobic surface. The result could be a promising for fabricate high efficient, large energy harvesting generators for portable and flexible systems.
