If elaborated, this new technology might make umbrellas everyone's favorite power bank.
, “Our research shows that a drop of 100 microlitres of water released from a height of 15 cm can generate a voltage of over 140V.”
The mechanism's structure is like a field-effect transistor which allows for high energy-conversion efficiency. This way, the power density is increased than its counterparts without the structure.The best part is that the scientists have calculated that they are converting 2.2 percent of each drop’s kinetic energy into electricity. This means that this new improvement might be the tip of the iceberg.could be applied on different surfaces where liquid hits the solid.
The technology has obstacles to overcome such as the electrode corrosion, however, Wang hopes that within five years the
