Having control on the specific area of power harvesting devices is the main controllable parameter in their fabrication. Hence, in this paper, at first a piezoelectric nanofiber is made with different dimensions and all kinds of function tests including X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry are implemented thereon. After ensuring accurate …… responses from the device, some kinds of forces like concentration impact and distributed impact and tension creation by applying bending force are applied on the fabricated device in the laboratory. To assess the effect of electrode position, electrodes were placed in five modes within the samples and the output voltage was recorded with regard to applied forces type. The results indicated that an increase in specific area of nanofibrous mats in devices absolutely resulted in an increase in electric output, but the electric output reduced consequently when it normalized to the specific area of nanofibrous mats. These results imply promising approaches, as an enhanced efficiency energy-scavenging interface, for designing and fabricating various wearable self-powered electrical devices and systems.
