A hybrid strain and thermal energy harvester based on an infra-red sensitive Er(3+) modified poly(vinylidene fluoride) ferroelectret structure

In this paper, a novel infra-red (IR) sensitive Er(3+) modified poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) (Er-PVDF) film is developed for converting both mechanical and thermal energies into useful electrical power. The addition of Er(3+) to PVDF is shown to improve piezoelectric properties due to the format...
