University of Surrey's ATI unveils new nanogenerators with a 140-fold power density boost, potentially rivaling solar cells.

If a traditional nanogenerator produces ten milliwatts of power, this new technology could increase that output to over 1,000 milliwatts.Thanks to new nanotechnology developed at the University of Surrey, your early morning run could soon help harvest enough electricity to power your wearable devices.

For instance, if a traditional nanogenerator produces ten milliwatts of power, this new technology could increase that output to over 1,000 milliwatts, making it suitable for energy harvesting in various everyday applications. Each runner collects a baton , adds more, and then passes all batons to the next runner, boosting the overall energy collected in a process called the charge regeneration effect.

“We are soon going to launch a company focused on self-powered, non-invasive healthcare sensors using triboelectric technology. Innovations like these will enable us to drive new spin-out activities in sustainable health tech, improve sensitivity, and emphasize industrial scalability,” said Dr Bhaskar Dudem, Research Fellow.
