Enhanced output of nanostructured piezoelectric arrays via controlled matrix/transducer interfacial interactions

(author unknown)



Kanguk Kim and Donald J. Sirbuly

Here we investigate the effects of interfacial interactions and the mechanical properties of the matrix on the piezoelectric output of vertically aligned ZnO nanowires (NWs) embedded in a polymer matrix. This matrix-assisted energy conversion platform allows non-mechanical energy sources to apply ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 101, 213114 (2012)] published Wed Nov 21, 2012.
