Abstract:
The present invention provides design, fabrication and characterization ofa cantilever based vibrational piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH). A new analytical model is developed and the dimension of unimorph PEH with proof mass is optimized. Using this model and methodology, it is shown that cantilever to harvester length and cantilever to proof mass width ratios should be optimum for the maximum power from the PEH for the PEHs fabricated using CMOS Compatible micromachining techniques by the novel scheme. The obtained high power density is attributed to the optimized dimensions of PEHs, the high piezoelectric coefficient (d31) of AlN film due to the use of composite bottom electrode stacks using Au as an interlayer. 

 
THE VISION
THE MISSION
ABOUT I-STEM
It has always been the basic tenet of the Government of India, in generously funding R&D efforts at academic institutions over the years, that facilities established through such support be made available to those needing them and qualified to make use of them for their own research work

However, this was never easy or straightforward for, among other reasons, there was no ready source of information of what facility was available and where. Thanks to the Web, it is much easier today to have a national and regional “inventory of resources”, so as to match users with the resources they need, and to do all this in an efficient and transparent manner.

This can lead to a leap in R&D productivity and greatly enhance the effectiveness of public investment. This is the motivation behind I-STEM.
