World’s First Self-powered Nano-device With Wireless Data Transmission

Posted: 17 Jun 2011 11:33 PM PDT

A lot has been explained about Nanotechnology and its various researches in CircuitsToday.com. In a study in ACS’s journal Scientists, another major advancement of Nanotechnology has been explained. According to the study, a new self-powered nano-device has been developed which has the ability to transmit data in wireless mode at very long distances. The device can be made feasible enough for developing various other devices like sensors that can be planted inside the human body, airborne and stationary cameras for surveillance, and also smaller personal electronic gadgets than the existing ones. All these devices will operate independently from external power like battery or environmental energy. Since they are nano-devices, the amount of energy required for their working is less. And this small amount of energy can be harvested from the pulse of a blood vessel, a small breeze, or even from a person's movement. Different sources from the environment like solar energy, a part of a strong wind, vibrational energy, sonic wave, and also thermal energy can be converted to the energy required for the nano-device. As shown in the figure, the device has a nano-generator that converts either one of the above derived energy to a small amount that...
