1. INTRODUCTION
It is with great excitement that I introduce you to the
world of Nanotechnology-Piezoelectric Energy
Generation. A discipline where the tiniest of atoms
and the most brilliant of minds come together to solve
biggest problem facing humanity - Energy. This
journal is a testament to the limitless possibilities that
can be achieved when science and innovation come
hand in hand. It is a celebration of the boundless
human potential and a reminder of what can be
achieved when we put our minds to it.
Nanotechnology represents the understanding,
engineering, and manipulation of materials at
approximately 1 to 100 nanometers (Youtie, 2007).
At this scale, materials have unique properties that
have contributed significantly to the fields of
electronics, the military, medicine, and consumer
products. Nanotechnologies exist in many products
that typical consumers might use quite frequently and
without realizing it - from sunscreens and cosmetics
to coatings on eyewear (Youtie, 2007).In more recent
research developments, nanotechnologies have been
implemented in medical systems with applications as
drug delivery modules and biosensors. (Springer,
2004).
With innovation at so many scales, there is a need for
new energy systems at each of those scales. Recently,
the energy crisis has called for new, sustainable forms
of energy that will continue to support rapid rates of

innovation. Despite significant strides in the fields of
larger-scale solar, geothermal, nuclear, wind, and
hydrogen energy as alternative energy sources, we
still face many uncertainties related to potential
nanotechnologies. These devices typically require
power sources within the milliwatt range to operate
(Wang, 2011).
Piezoelectric materials (ZnO, PZT) present unique
properties in their internal crystal array structures
(Wang, 2008). Upon external disturbance, such as a
vibration or mechanical wave, a voltage drop occurs
because the internal atoms may not be symmetrically
aligned (Springer, 2004). These unique
characteristics, shared across all piezoelectric
materials, allow for the generation of electricity
through mechanical stress. Piezoelectric
nanogenerators could convert mechanical energy into
electrical energy for self-powered nano-systems
through a variety of methods. Some potential
applications for this energy source could include
body/muscle movement, blood pressure, vibration
energy (acoustic/ultrasonic waves), hydraulic energy,
or dynamic fluids (Wang, 2008).
Nanotechnology, the manipulation and control of
matter at the nanoscale, has revolutionized our
understanding of materials and their properties. The
development of nanotechnology had paved way for
new and innovative technologies, including the
generation of electricity from the motion of
piezoelectric materials. We will explores the history
and current state of piezoelectric energy generation
and its role in the development of nanotechnology.
This concept of piezoelectricity, the generation
system of an electric charge in response to applied
mechanical stress, was first discovered in 1880s. It
wasn't until the development of nanotechnology that
the potential of piezoelectric materials for energy
generation became fully realized. The ability to
control the properties of materials at the nanoscale
allowed for the creation of highly efficient
piezoelectric devices that can convert the motion of
everyday objects into electricity.
This Article provides an in-depth examination of
history of piezoelectric energy generation, from its
early beginnings to its current state as a promising
source of renewable energy. We also explore various
materials and technologies used in the creation of
piezoelectric devices and examine their potential for
the future of energy generation purposes.
Furthermore, in this piece of writing, we will delve
into the science behind piezoelectric energy
generation, including principles, mechanisms and
development that make its functions possible and
realizable. We will also explore the various
applications of piezoelectric materials, from small-
scale devices for personal energy generation to large-
scale systems for powering entire communities and
industries.
Whether you are a scientist, engineer, or simply
someone interested in the development of
nanotechnology-piezoelectric and its potential for
energy generation and usage, this journal is sure to
provide you a wealth of information and insights. So,
let begin our journey into the fascinating world of
piezoelectric energy generation and the role it plays in
the development of nanotechnology.
2. MATERIAL AND METHOD
There are numerous styles of designing
Nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation but
all these methodologies require the uses of
piezoelectric material for energy generation. The
following approach was adopted so as to achieve the
central idea of this work. These are requirement
definition and infrastructural modelling.
2.1. Description of Major Circuit Component
2.1.1. Piezoelectric Disc
Piezoelectricity is a fascinating concept in materials
science that has revolutionized the world of
electronics. It refers to the ability of certain materials
to generate an electric charge in response to
mechanical stress or strain. One of the most common
applications of piezoelectricity is in the production of
piezoelectric discs, which are widely used in a variety
of devices such as sensors, actuators, and transducers.
Figure 1: Piezoelectric Disc
Piezoelectric discs are made from special materials
such as quartz, lead zirconate titanate (PZT), and
certain ceramics. These materials have a unique
property that when they are subjected to mechanical
stress or strain, they generate an electric charge. This
is because the atoms in the material are arranged in a
way that creates a dipole moment, which means that
they have a positive charge on one end and a negative
charge on the other. To make a piezoelectric disc, a
thin slice of the piezoelectric material is first cut and
shaped into a circular disc. The disc is then coated

with metal electrodes on both sides, which are
connected to wires. When a mechanical force is
applied to the disc, it causes the material to compress
or expand, which generates an electric charge that can
be detected by the electrodes. (Bhalla, 2000).
One of the most interesting things about piezoelectric
discs is that they can also work in reverse. That is, if
an electric charge is applied to the electrodes, it
causes the material to expand or contract, which
creates a mechanical force. This property is used in
devices such as actuators, which convert electrical
energy into mechanical motion. (Uchino, 2011).
Piezoelectric discs have many practical applications.
They are used in devices such as ultrasound
machines, inkjet printers, and vibration sensors. They
are also used in musical instruments such as electric
guitars, where they are used to generate a sound wave
by converting the mechanical vibrations of the strings
into an electrical signal. In summary, piezoelectric
disc generation is the process of creating a circular
disc made of piezoelectric material, which can
generate an electric charge in response to mechanical
stress or strain. These discs have many practical
applications and are widely used in modern
electronics.
2.1.2. Diodes
A diode is an electronic element that allows the flow
of current in a direction. Its resistivity at one end is
lower and higher at the other end. Semiconductor
substance with a pn junction connected to two
electrical pins/legs (terminal) is a crystalline
composition which is the generally applied kind of a
semiconductor presently. A pn junction crystallized
either silicon or germanium demitasse and is known
as rectifier diodes. These diodes are made up of
semiconductor substance and applied in rectification
procedure. These groups of diode allow the current to
flow in forward bias and block the inflow of current
in reversed bias. Semiconductor diodes were the first
semiconductor electronic devices. The ideal diode
law states that (Lingam, 2008).
(Sood, Kaur, and Lenka, 2013).
Where
I = the net current flowing through the diode
I0 = "dark saturation current", the diode leakage
current density in the absence of light
V = applied voltage across the terminals of the
diode
q = absolute value of electron charge
k = Boltzmann's constant
T = absolute temperature (K)
Diodes are further classified based on their functions.
These classes include, Light emitting diodes, power
diode and Zener diodes (Lingam, 2008).
Power Diode: A kind of diode generally used in
power inventories circuits is known as a power diode.
Just like normal diode, a power diode has two-
terminals and allows the inflow of current in one
direction. A power diode varies in structure from a
standard diode to allow this advanced current level.
For the purpose of this project, four [power diode
were used.
Figure 2: Power diode
Light Emitting Diode: A light-emitting diode (LED)
is a kind of diode that emits glow when current passes
through its terminals. When current passes through
the pins/legs (terminal) of this diode, it generates
light. In different terms, light is generated when a
sufficient quantum of encouraging current passes
through the LED. In multiple diodes, this glow
emitted is not seeable as their frequency situations
that don't allow visibility. LEDs are accessible in
multiple colors such as tricolor LEDs that can radiate
three colors at a time. The color of the light is
dependable on the energy interval of the
semiconductor applied.
Figure 3: LED
Zener Diode: This is the most applicable kind of
diode as it can give a steady source voltage. Zener
diode is operated in rear bias and disintegrates down
on the appearance of a specific voltage. However, a
stable voltage is achieved when the current passing
through the resistor is repressed. This diode is
extensively used in power inventories to supply a
reference voltage.

2.1.3. Capacitor
Figure 5: Capacitor
An electrical/electronic element that stores energy for
a little period of time is known as capacitor. The
forms of applied capacitors differ extensively;
majority of the capacitor made up of no less than two
conductors separated by an insulator (dielectric) when
there is voltage detection around the positive charge
on one side of the plate and a negative charge on the
other side of the plate. In electrical networks,
capacitors are used extensively. An absolute capacitor
is depicted by stable capacitance C, measured in
farads:

Where
C = Capacitance

In practical application of these devices, incremental
changes defines the capacitance (Bird,2003).
(Neverova and Semanov, 1981).
The maximum energy stored in a capacitor can be
represented by:

Where:
E = energy stored in the capacitor

The capacitor discharge is the function of time during
the discharge period

2.2. Methodology
The development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric
energy generation involves the use of nanoscale
materials to create devices that can convert
mechanical energy into electrical energy. This
process is based on the piezoelectric effect, which
refers to the ability of certain materials to generate an
electrical charge in response to mechanical stress. To
create this device, Piezoelectric Disc,2600mAh - 3.7v
rechargeable Battery of 45mmx10mm, Battery case
and Power bank charging Module will be employed.
These materials are carefully selected based on their
specific properties, such as their ability to withstand
stress, their electrical conductivity, and their stability.
Once the materials are chosen, a variety of fabrication
techniques are used to create the device. These
techniques include photolithography, electron beam
lithography, and atomic layer deposition. These
processes allow for precise control over the size and
shape of the nanoscale structures, which is essential
for creating device that can generates consistent and
reliable amounts of electrical energy. Once the
devices are fabricated, they are tested and optimized
to ensure they are generating as much electrical
energy as possible. This involves measuring their
output under a variety of conditions, such as different
levels of mechanical stress. Through this process, one
can identify any weaknesses in the devices and make
improvements to increase their efficiency. Overall,
the development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric
energy generation involves a complex and
interdisciplinary approach, combining materials
science, nanotechnology, and electrical engineering.
It is a rapidly evolving field that has the potential to
revolutionize the way we generate and use energy.

2.2.1. Piezoelectric Material
Piezoelectric materials exhibit the unique property known as the piezoelectric effect. When these materials are
subjected to a compressive or tensile stress, an electric field is generated across the material, creating a voltage
gradient and a subsequent current flow. This effect stems from the asymmetric nature of their unit cell when a
stress is applied. The unit cell contains a small positively charges particle in the center. When a stress is applied
this particle becomes shifted in one direction which creates a charge distribution, and subsequent electric field.
These materials come in several different forms. The most common is crystals, but they are also found as
plastics and ceramics.
Figure 7: Piezoelectric detailed diagram
The piezoelectric effect is a phenomenon where certain materials generate an electric charge in response to
mechanical stress or pressure. This effect is widely used in various applications, such as pressure sensors,
microphones, and actuators.
Here is a pictorial explanation of the piezoelectric effect:
When an external force or pressure is applied to a piezoelectric material, it causes a deformation in the
material's crystal structure.
As a result of this deformation, some of the electric charges in the material become separated, creating a
separation of positive and negative charges along the crystal's surface.
This separation of charges generates an electric potential across the material, which can be measured with an
external circuit.
When the external force or pressure is released, the material returns to its original shape, and the electric
charges and potential disappear.
Conversely, if an electric potential is applied to the material, it will cause a deformation in the crystal
structure, resulting in a change in shape or mechanical motion.

Here is a simple illustration of the piezoelectric effect in action:
Figure 8: Pictorial explanation on piezoelectric effect.
In the above illustration, a force is applied to a piezoelectric crystal, causing it to deform and generate an electric
potential across its surface. This potential can be measured with an external circuit, which could be used to
monitor changes in pressure, strain, or vibration. Conversely, applying an electric potential to the crystal would
cause it to deform and produce a mechanical motion, which could be used in applications such as actuators or
motors.
2.2.2. Rectifier
A bridge rectifier is made up of four diodes which makes a full wave rectifier that converts AC input generated
from Piezoelectric Disc to DC output. Bridge rectifiers are considerably used in power inventories that give the
demanded DC voltage for electronic factors. D1, D2, D3 & D4 are used for designing the bridge rectifier. These
diodes are connected in a way such that AC is converted to DC efficiently. The AC output (two terminals) of the
Piezoelectric Disc were connected to D1-D2 and D3-D4 respectively called terminal A and B and the Output DC
voltage terminals were obtained from D1-D4 and D2-D3 terminals called terminal C and D respectively. During
the positive cycle, two diodes like D1 and D3 will conduct electricity and during the negative cycle, two diodes
like D2 and D4 will conduct electricity.
Figure 9: Bridge Rectifier
2.2.3. Battery charging module
A battery charging module is a device that is used to charge rechargeable batteries. It typically includes a
charging circuit, which controls the charging process to prevent overcharging or undercharging of the battery.
This module is made for charging rechargeable lithium batteries using the constant-current/constant-voltage
(CC/CV) charging method.

@ IJTSRD | Unique Paper ID – IJTSRD53831 | Volume – 7 | Issue – 1 | January-February 2023 Page 1278
The charging module consists of a power input port, usually a USB port or a DC jack, and a set of charging pins
or wires that are connected to the battery. It also includes a charge controller, which regulates the charging
process and ensures that the battery is charged at the correct voltage and current. The charge controller typically
has a built-in voltage regulator to maintain a constant voltage during the charging process. It also monitors the
battery's charge level and adjusts the charging current accordingly to prevent overcharging, which can cause the
battery to overheat or even explode.
This module also include additional features such as battery protection circuits, power output ports, and LED
indicators to indicate the charging status.
Battery charging modules are useful tools for ensuring that rechargeable batteries are charged safely and
efficiently. They can be used in a wide range of applications, from charging the batteries in portable electronic
devices to charging large batteries in electric vehicles.

used will function to the best of their capacity. The design gives an overview of the roles of the major block,
how they are integrated, and the information flow arrangement. After the design has been made, the construction
of the circuit begins; the piezoelectric material used is established on the circuit design with other component
connection and flexibility. The other component such as the Rectifier module, Battery charging module and the
load which is a mobile phone were used for the construction of the project.

Figure 12: circuit Diagram of the project
In nanotechnology, piezoelectric energy generation can be achieved through the use of various subcomponents,
which are connected in a specific circuit. The following is an overview of the circuit connection of all
subcomponents in the development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation:
Piezoelectric Material: The piezoelectric material is the heart of the piezoelectric energy generation circuit. It is
made up of a crystal lattice structure, which produces a voltage potential difference when mechanical stress is
applied to it. This material is connected in series with the rest of the circuit, and it is the component that
generates the electrical energy.
Transducer: The transducer is a component that converts the mechanical stress applied to the piezoelectric
material into electrical energy. It is connected in series with the piezoelectric material, and it helps to amplifythe
voltage potential difference produced by the piezoelectric material. Shoe is serves as transducer in the project.
Power Conditioning Circuit: It consists of a rectifier and filter, which work together to convert the raw AC
voltage generated by the piezoelectric material into a stable DC voltage that can be used to power other
electronic devices.
Energy Storage Unit: The energy storage unit is a component that stores the electrical energy produced by the
piezoelectric material and the transducer. It is usually a battery or a capacitor that is connected in parallel with
the power conditioning circuit. The energy storage unit helps to ensure that the electrical energy generated by the
piezoelectric material is not wasted, and can be used at a later time.
Load: The load is the component that consumes the electrical energy produced by the piezoelectric material and
the transducer. It is connected in parallel with the energy storage unit, and it can be any electronic device that
requires electrical power.
In summary, the subcomponents in the development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation are
connected in a series and parallel circuit, where the piezoelectric material is the component that generates the
electrical energy. The transducer amplifies the voltage potential difference produced by the piezoelectric
material, while the power conditioning circuit converts the raw AC voltage into a stable DC voltage. The energy
storage unit stores the electrical energy, and the load consumes it.

design accordingly, before retesting the system.

making them suitable for use in harsh environments.
However, there are still some challenges that need to be addressed in the development of nanotechnology-based
piezoelectric energy generation. The efficiency of energy conversion is still relatively low, and the cost of
producing these devices is currently high. Additionally, there is a need for more research to be conducted on the
long-term durability and reliability of these devices.

Development of Nanotechnology Piezoelectric Energy Generation

  • 1. International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (IJTSRD) Volume 7 Issue 1, January-February 2023 Available Online: www.ijtsrd.com e-ISSN: 2456 – 6470 @ IJTSRD | Unique Paper ID – IJTSRD53831 | Volume – 7 | Issue – 1 | January-February 2023 Page 1272 Development of Nanotechnology-Piezoelectric Energy Generation Issa Lukman Oluwadare1 , Lambe Adesina Mutalub2 , Olalekan Ogunbiyi3 1 Kwara State Ministry of Power and Energy, Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria 2,3 Electrical and Computer Engineering Kwara State University, Malete, Kwara State, Nigeria ABSTRACT Since an invention of piezoelectric nanogenerator in 2006 by Zhong Lin Wang a Chinese-American physicist, materials scientist and engineer specialized in nanotechnology. Nanotechnology has made it possible for devices to work without external power supply. This is a crucial step forward in the quest solving the world's energy problems and create a sustainable future. We are always pushing the boundaries of what's possible in energy generation and storage. The development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation is no exception. Nanotechnology has become a rapidly growing field in recent years, offering new and innovative solutions to a wide range of challenges facing humanity. One of the most promising applications of nanotechnology is the development of nanoscale piezoelectric energy generators which have the ability and capability to harvest energy from several sources and convert it to usable electricity. This technology is based on piezoelectric effect which produces quantity of electric-charge in response to mechanical stress. . By fabricating piezoelectric materials at the nanoscale, it is possible to create devices that are highly efficient and capable of converting even small amounts of mechanical energy into usable electricity. This article provides an overview of the current state of the art in nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation, including the materials and techniques used to create these devices, as well as their performance and potential applications. More so, the challenges facing the widespread adoption of nanoscale piezoelectric energy generators are also discussed, including issues related to cost, scalability, and durability. Despite these challenges, benefits of this technology are significant, and the continued development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation has the potential to revolutionize the way we think about energy generation and storage in the future.

This journal is a testament to the limitless possibilities that can be achieved when science and innovation come hand in hand. It is a celebration of the boundless human potential and a reminder of what can be achieved when we put our minds to it. Nanotechnology represents the understanding, engineering, and manipulation of materials at approximately 1 to 100 nanometers (Youtie, 2007). At this scale, materials have unique properties that have contributed significantly to the fields of electronics, the military, medicine, and consumer products. Nanotechnologies exist in many products that typical consumers might use quite frequently and without realizing it - from sunscreens and cosmetics to coatings on eyewear (Youtie, 2007).In more recent research developments, nanotechnologies have been implemented in medical systems with applications as drug delivery modules and biosensors.

Despite significant strides in the fields of larger-scale solar, geothermal, nuclear, wind, and hydrogen energy as alternative energy sources, we still face many uncertainties related to potential nanotechnologies. These devices typically require power sources within the milliwatt range to operate (Wang, 2011). Piezoelectric materials (ZnO, PZT) present unique properties in their internal crystal array structures (Wang, 2008). Upon external disturbance, such as a vibration or mechanical wave, a voltage drop occurs because the internal atoms may not be symmetrically aligned (Springer, 2004). These unique characteristics, shared across all piezoelectric materials, allow for the generation of electricity through mechanical stress. Piezoelectric nanogenerators could convert mechanical energy into electrical energy for self-powered nano-systems through a variety of methods. Some potential applications for this energy source could include body/muscle movement, blood pressure, vibration energy (acoustic/ultrasonic waves), hydraulic energy, or dynamic fluids (Wang, 2008). Nanotechnology, the manipulation and control of matter at the nanoscale, has revolutionized our understanding of materials and their properties. The development of nanotechnology had paved way for new and innovative technologies, including the generation of electricity from the motion of piezoelectric materials. We will explores the history and current state of piezoelectric energy generation and its role in the development of nanotechnology. This concept of piezoelectricity, the generation system of an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress, was first discovered in 1880s. It wasn't until the development of nanotechnology that the potential of piezoelectric materials for energy generation became fully realized. The ability to control the properties of materials at the nanoscale allowed for the creation of highly efficient piezoelectric devices that can convert the motion of everyday objects into electricity. This Article provides an in-depth examination of history of piezoelectric energy generation, from its early beginnings to its current state as a promising source of renewable energy. We also explore various materials and technologies used in the creation of piezoelectric devices and examine their potential for the future of energy generation purposes. Furthermore, in this piece of writing, we will delve into the science behind piezoelectric energy generation, including principles, mechanisms and development that make its functions possible and realizable. We will also explore the various applications of piezoelectric materials, from small- scale devices for personal energy generation to large- scale systems for powering entire communities and industries. Whether you are a scientist, engineer, or simply someone interested in the development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric and its potential for energy generation and usage, this journal is sure to provide you a wealth of information and insights. So, let begin our journey into the fascinating world of piezoelectric energy generation and the role it plays in the development of nanotechnology. 2. MATERIAL AND METHOD There are numerous styles of designing Nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation but all these methodologies require the uses of piezoelectric material for energy generation. The following approach was adopted so as to achieve the central idea of this work. These are requirement definition and infrastructural modelling. 2.1. Description of Major Circuit Component 2.1.1. Piezoelectric Disc Piezoelectricity is a fascinating concept in materials science that has revolutionized the world of electronics. It refers to the ability of certain materials to generate an electric charge in response to mechanical stress or strain. One of the most common applications of piezoelectricity is in the production of piezoelectric discs, which are widely used in a variety of devices such as sensors, actuators, and transducers. Figure 1: Piezoelectric Disc Piezoelectric discs are made from special materials such as quartz, lead zirconate titanate (PZT), and certain ceramics. These materials have a unique property that when they are subjected to mechanical stress or strain, they generate an electric charge. This is because the atoms in the material are arranged in a way that creates a dipole moment, which means that they have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other. To make a piezoelectric disc, a thin slice of the piezoelectric material is first cut and shaped into a circular disc. The disc is then coated

When a mechanical force is applied to the disc, it causes the material to compress or expand, which generates an electric charge that can be detected by the electrodes. (Bhalla, 2000). One of the most interesting things about piezoelectric discs is that they can also work in reverse. That is, if an electric charge is applied to the electrodes, it causes the material to expand or contract, which creates a mechanical force. This property is used in devices such as actuators, which convert electrical energy into mechanical motion. (Uchino, 2011). Piezoelectric discs have many practical applications. They are used in devices such as ultrasound machines, inkjet printers, and vibration sensors. They are also used in musical instruments such as electric guitars, where they are used to generate a sound wave by converting the mechanical vibrations of the strings into an electrical signal. In summary, piezoelectric disc generation is the process of creating a circular disc made of piezoelectric material, which can generate an electric charge in response to mechanical stress or strain. These discs have many practical applications and are widely used in modern electronics. 2.1.2. Diodes A diode is an electronic element that allows the flow of current in a direction. Its resistivity at one end is lower and higher at the other end. Semiconductor substance with a pn junction connected to two electrical pins/legs (terminal) is a crystalline composition which is the generally applied kind of a semiconductor presently. A pn junction crystallized either silicon or germanium demitasse and is known as rectifier diodes. These diodes are made up of semiconductor substance and applied in rectification procedure. These groups of diode allow the current to flow in forward bias and block the inflow of current in reversed bias. Semiconductor diodes were the first semiconductor electronic devices. The ideal diode law states that (Lingam, 2008). (Sood, Kaur, and Lenka, 2013). Where I = the net current flowing through the diode I0 = "dark saturation current", the diode leakage current density in the absence of light V = applied voltage across the terminals of the diode q = absolute value of electron charge k = Boltzmann's constant T = absolute temperature (K) Diodes are further classified based on their functions. These classes include, Light emitting diodes, power diode and Zener diodes (Lingam, 2008). Power Diode: A kind of diode generally used in power inventories circuits is known as a power diode. Just like normal diode, a power diode has two- terminals and allows the inflow of current in one direction. A power diode varies in structure from a standard diode to allow this advanced current level. For the purpose of this project, four [power diode were used. Figure 2: Power diode Light Emitting Diode: A light-emitting diode (LED) is a kind of diode that emits glow when current passes through its terminals. When current passes through the pins/legs (terminal) of this diode, it generates light. In different terms, light is generated when a sufficient quantum of encouraging current passes through the LED. In multiple diodes, this glow emitted is not seeable as their frequency situations that don't allow visibility. LEDs are accessible in multiple colors such as tricolor LEDs that can radiate three colors at a time. The color of the light is dependable on the energy interval of the semiconductor applied. Figure 3: LED Zener Diode: This is the most applicable kind of diode as it can give a steady source voltage. Zener diode is operated in rear bias and disintegrates down on the appearance of a specific voltage. However, a stable voltage is achieved when the current passing through the resistor is repressed. This diode is extensively used in power inventories to supply a reference voltage.

Capacitor Figure 5: Capacitor An electrical/electronic element that stores energy for a little period of time is known as capacitor. The forms of applied capacitors differ extensively; majority of the capacitor made up of no less than two conductors separated by an insulator (dielectric) when there is voltage detection around the positive charge on one side of the plate and a negative charge on the other side of the plate. In electrical networks, capacitors are used extensively. An absolute capacitor is depicted by stable capacitance C, measured in farads: (Lingam, 2008). Where C = Capacitance V = Voltage Q = Electric Charge In practical application of these devices, incremental changes defines the capacitance (Bird,2003). (Neverova and Semanov, 1981). The maximum energy stored in a capacitor can be represented by: (Bird, 2003) Where: E = energy stored in the capacitor d = diameter between the dielectric plates A = area of the dielectric plates The equation for capacitor charging can be expressed as the time constant at which it charge (Gurevich, 2016) Where: R = Resistance C = Capacitance The capacitor discharge is the function of time during the discharge period (Prayash, 2018) Where: Vc = voltage across the capacitor RC = Time constant Vs = Supply voltage and t = Time 2.2. Methodology The development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation involves the use of nanoscale materials to create devices that can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. This process is based on the piezoelectric effect, which refers to the ability of certain materials to generate an electrical charge in response to mechanical stress. To create this device, Piezoelectric Disc,2600mAh - 3.7v rechargeable Battery of 45mmx10mm, Battery case and Power bank charging Module will be employed. These materials are carefully selected based on their specific properties, such as their ability to withstand stress, their electrical conductivity, and their stability. Once the materials are chosen, a variety of fabrication techniques are used to create the device. These techniques include photolithography, electron beam lithography, and atomic layer deposition. These processes allow for precise control over the size and shape of the nanoscale structures, which is essential for creating device that can generates consistent and reliable amounts of electrical energy. Once the devices are fabricated, they are tested and optimized to ensure they are generating as much electrical energy as possible. This involves measuring their output under a variety of conditions, such as different levels of mechanical stress. Through this process, one can identify any weaknesses in the devices and make improvements to increase their efficiency. Overall, the development of nanotechnology-piezoelectric energy generation involves a complex and interdisciplinary approach, combining materials science, nanotechnology, and electrical engineering. It is a rapidly evolving field that has the potential to revolutionize the way we generate and use energy.

Piezoelectric Material Piezoelectric materials exhibit the unique property known as the piezoelectric effect. When these materials are subjected to a compressive or tensile stress, an electric field is generated across the material, creating a voltage gradient and a subsequent current flow. This effect stems from the asymmetric nature of their unit cell when a stress is applied. The unit cell contains a small positively charges particle in the center. When a stress is applied this particle becomes shifted in one direction which creates a charge distribution, and subsequent electric field. These materials come in several different forms. The most common is crystals, but they are also found as plastics and ceramics. Figure 7: Piezoelectric detailed diagram The piezoelectric effect is a phenomenon where certain materials generate an electric charge in response to mechanical stress or pressure. This effect is widely used in various applications, such as pressure sensors, microphones, and actuators. Here is a pictorial explanation of the piezoelectric effect: When an external force or pressure is applied to a piezoelectric material, it causes a deformation in the material's crystal structure. As a result of this deformation, some of the electric charges in the material become separated, creating a separation of positive and negative charges along the crystal's surface. This separation of charges generates an electric potential across the material, which can be measured with an external circuit. When the external force or pressure is released, the material returns to its original shape, and the electric charges and potential disappear. Conversely, if an electric potential is applied to the material, it will cause a deformation in the crystal structure, resulting in a change in shape or mechanical motion.

In the above illustration, a force is applied to a piezoelectric crystal, causing it to deform and generate an electric potential across its surface. This potential can be measured with an external circuit, which could be used to monitor changes in pressure, strain, or vibration. Conversely, applying an electric potential to the crystal would cause it to deform and produce a mechanical motion, which could be used in applications such as actuators or motors. 2.2.2. Rectifier A bridge rectifier is made up of four diodes which makes a full wave rectifier that converts AC input generated from Piezoelectric Disc to DC output. Bridge rectifiers are considerably used in power inventories that give the demanded DC voltage for electronic factors. D1, D2, D3 & D4 are used for designing the bridge rectifier. These diodes are connected in a way such that AC is converted to DC efficiently. The AC output (two terminals) of the Piezoelectric Disc were connected to D1-D2 and D3-D4 respectively called terminal A and B and the Output DC voltage terminals were obtained from D1-D4 and D2-D3 terminals called terminal C and D respectively. During the positive cycle, two diodes like D1 and D3 will conduct electricity and during the negative cycle, two diodes like D2 and D4 will conduct electricity. Figure 9: Bridge Rectifier 2.2.3. Battery charging module A battery charging module is a device that is used to charge rechargeable batteries. It typically includes a charging circuit, which controls the charging process to prevent overcharging or undercharging of the battery. This module is made for charging rechargeable lithium batteries using the constant-current/constant-voltage (CC/CV) charging method.

It also includes a charge controller, which regulates the charging process and ensures that the battery is charged at the correct voltage and current. The charge controller typically has a built-in voltage regulator to maintain a constant voltage during the charging process.
