Abstract:Additively manufactured nano-MEH systems are widely used to harvest energy from renewable and sustainable energy sources such as wind, ocean, sunlight, raindrops, and ambient vibrations. A comprehensive study focusing on in-depth technology evolution, applications, problems, and future trends of specifically 3D printed nano-MEH systems with an energy point of view is rarely conducted. Therefore, this paper looks into the state-of-the-art technologies, energy harvesting sources/methods, performance, implementat… Show more
“…Thus, 40 mm/s was taken as level 1, 50 mm/s as level 2, and 60 mm/s as level 3. However, there was a negligible change in Ra-PA-6 and Rq-PA-6 because of the open-air printer as the air quickly wraps up and forms defects in layers [ 68 ].…”
This research objective is to optimize the surface roughness of Nylon-6 (PA-6) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) by analyzing the parametric effects of the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technique of Three-Dimensional Printing (3DP) parameters. This article discusses how to optimize the surface roughness using Taguchi analysis by the S/N ratio, ANOVA, and modeling methods. The effects of ABS parameters (initial line thickness, raster width, bed temperature, build pattern, extrusion temperature, print speed, and layer thickness) and PA-6 parameters (layer thickness, print speed, extrusion temperature, and build pattern) were investigated with the average surface roughness (Ra) and root-mean-square average surface roughness (Rq) as response parameters. Validation tests revealed that Ra and Rq decreased significantly. After the optimization, the Ra-ABS and Rq-PA-6 for the fabricated optimized values were 1.75 µm and 21.37 µm, respectively. Taguchi optimization of Ra-ABS, Rq-ABS, Ra-PA-6, and Rq-PA-6 was performed to make one step forward to use them in further research and prototypes.

Section: Possible Applications Of Mpb In Hafnia Materials Systemmentioning
In the present hyper-scaling era, memory technology is advancing owing to the demand for high-performance computing and storage devices. As a result, continuous work on conventional semiconductor-process-compatible ferroelectric memory devices such as ferroelectric field-effect transistors, ferroelectric random-access memory, and dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) cell capacitors is ongoing. To operate high-performance computing devices, high-density, high-speed, and reliable memory devices such as DRAMs are required. Consequently, considerable attention has been devoted to the enhanced high dielectric constant and reduced equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of DRAM cell capacitors. The advancement of ferroelectric hafnia has enabled the development of various devices, such as ferroelectric memories, piezoelectric sensors, and energy harvesters. Therefore, in this review, we focus the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between ferroelectric orthorhombic and tetragonal phases, where we can achieve a high dielectric constant and thereby reduce the EOT. We also present the role of the MPB in perovskite and fluorite structures as well as the history of the MPB phase. We also address the different approaches for achieving the MPB phase in a hafnia material system. Subsequently, we review the critical issues in DRAM technology using hafnia materials. Finally, we present various applications of the hafnia material system near the MPB, such as memory, sensors, and energy harvesters.
Graphical Abstract
“…Integration of the exceptional wave-manipulating properties of phononic crystals (PnCs) with piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH) systems has led to the enhancement of output electric power through the amplification of the input elastic-wave energy provided to piezoelectric devices [ 1 – 4 ]. The promising PEH technology converts ambient mechanical energy into usable electric energy owing to the direct piezoelectric effect [ 5 – 8 ].…”
This study proposes a phononic crystal (PnC) with triple defects in an L-shape arrangement for broadband piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH). The incorporation of defects in PnCs has attracted significant attention in PEH fields owing to properties such as energy localization and amplification near the defect. Several studies have been conducted to enhance output electric power of PnC-based PEH systems with single defects. However, it is susceptible to the limitations of narrow bandwidth. Recently, double-defect-incorporated systems have been proposed to widen the PEH bandwidth via defect-band splitting. Nevertheless, the PEH performance rapidly decreases in the frequency range between the split defect bands. The limitations of single- and double-defect-incorporated systems can be resolved by the incorporation of the proposed design concept, called the L-shape triple defects in a PnC. The isolated single defect at the top vertex of the letter ‘L’ compensates for the limitations of double-defect-incorporated systems, whereas the double defects at the bottom vertices compensate for the limitations of the single-defect-incorporated systems. Hence, the proposed design can effectively confine and harvest elastic-wave energy over broadband frequencies while enhancing the application of single and double defects. The effectiveness of the proposed design concept is numerically validated using the finite element method. In the case of a circular hole-type PnC, it is verified that the PnC with L-shape triple defects broadens the bandwidth, and improves the output voltage and electric power compared with those of single- and double-defect-incorporated systems. This study expands the design space of defect-incorporated PnCs and might shed light on other engineering applications of the frequency detector and elastic wave power transfer.
