제목 Flexible PMN-PT Nanogenerator and its Application for Self-powered Cardiac Pacemaker
초록 Artificial cardiac pacemaker is widely used to maintain an adequate heart rate. The repetitive surgery are required to replace the pacemakers due to limited lifespan of batteries. Recharging battery in a human body and adopting self-powered nerve stimulation are reasonable solution for solving the problem. This paper describes flexible PMN-PT nanogenerator (NG) as a high-performance flexible energy harvester for application of self-powered cardiac pacemaker. The NG device generates open-circuit voltage of 8.2 V and short-circuit current of 0.22 mA which is the highest output current among previously reported piezoelectric ceramic-based flexible NGs. We successfully drive 50 LEDs and charge batteries by electric energy harvested from the thin film NG. Finally, the flexible PMN-PT NG is utilized to make direct stimulation of cardiac nerve for artificial heartbeat without external power source.
