Abstract

This paper presents a hybrid vibration power generator based on piezoelectric and electromagnetic mechanisms. The hybrid power generator is composed of a 36 mm17 mm0.73 mm piezoelectric cantilever and a 40 mm long electromagnetic tube. Such combination allows the generator to produce high power output using both piezoelectric effect and electromagnetic induction under low-frequency vibrations. The hybrid generator was capable of producing higher power output (2.173 mW at 25 Hz of 1 g) compared to conventional designs of the same dimensions. The proposed hybrid generator holds a potential in applications such as self-powered microelectronics and wireless sensor nodes.
