Nano, MEMS are advancing energy harvesting technology
Abstract:
Using nanotechnology and MEMS technology in energy harvesting applications is a work in progress that nevertheless shows huge potential, experts said.
Progress was in evidence at this week's Sensors Expo here, including a session on using nanotechnology and MEMS in energy harvesting applications. Panelists said companies like EaglePicher, Tadiran and Varta are capitalizing on existing lithium technologies to offer micro batteries for energy harvesting applications.
