(author)Vibrational piezoelectric energy harvesters are being investigated to replace batteries in embedded sensor systems. The energy density that can be harvested depends on the figure of merit, d<sub>33</sub>g<sub>33</sub>, where d<sub>33</sub> and g<sub>33</sub> are the piezoelectric charge and voltage coefficient. Commonly used piezoelectric...journal article 2019

Deutz, D.B. (author), Mascarenhas, N.T. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Groen, W.A. (author)Composites of aligned (K,Na,Li)NbO<sub>3</sub> (KNLN) piezoceramic particles in a PDMS polymer matrix are presented as promising materials for flexible sensors and energy harvesters. Their ease of processing is matched with a relatively high damage tolerance and piezoelectric performance at low dielectric loss. To maximize piezoelectric...journal article 2017
