Öğe Long-Term Stability of Ferroelectret Energy Harvesters(MDPI, 2020) Kayaharman, Muhammed; Das, Taylan; Seviora, Gregory; Saritas, Resul; Abdel-Rahman, Eihab; Yavuz, MustafaCellular polypropylene (PP) has been recently used in energy harvesting applications. In this work, we investigate its viability and long-term stability under various operating conditions. Specifically, the effect of constant stress and stress cycling on output power and long-term stability of ferroelectret energy harvesters is analyzed. Our findings show that after 112 days constant stress significantly increases the piezoelectric charge constant d(33) and output power from 0.51 mu W for a stress-free harvester to 2.71 mu W. It also increases the harvester center frequency from 450 to 700 Hz and decreases its optimal resistance from 7 to 5.5 M Omega.
