Description

Zinc oxide nanowire generator and preparation method based on the cardiac muscle cell
Technical field
The invention belongs to the nano generator field, be specifically related to nano generator that a kind of cardiac muscle cell of employing generates electricity as drive source and a kind of device architecture of this nano generator.
Background technology
The nanometer piezoelectric like GaN and ZnO etc., has application widely at nano generator and piezoelectron devices field.Zinc oxide nanowire is to study maximum piezoelectrics at present in the world.
Zinc cation in the zinc oxide nanowire and negative oxygen ion are aimed at the positive tetrahedron structure, and under no external force effect, the center of positive charge of zinc ion and the center of negative charge of oxonium ion overlap, and dipole moment is zero.Under external force, zinc ion and oxonium ion depart from original position, and center of positive charge and center of negative charge no longer overlap, and dipole moment is non-vanishing; If the C direction of principal axis along nano wire imposes pulling force, dipole moment is being for just, otherwise; For negative, on macroscopic view, all dipole moments stack up; Form macroscopical electric field along the C direction of principal axis, the two ends of nano wire produce electrical potential difference, and mechanical energy is converted into electric energy.Utilize this principle, be born in 2006 based on first DC generator of zinc oxide nanowire, the correlative study achievement is published on U.S. Science magazine.(Zhong Lin Wang and Jinhui Song; Piezoelectronic Nanogenerators Based on Zinc Oxide Nanowire Arrays.Science; Vol.312,2006) subsequently, be born in zinc oxide nanowire alternating current generator in 2008.(Runsen Yang and Yong Qin et al.; Power generation with laterally packaged piezoelectric nanowires.NNANO; DOI:10.1038/NNANO.2008.314) utilize integrated method; The output voltage of nano generator is improved constantly, and the maximum output voltage of reporting for work in the document at present can reach 10V, can be used for driving a simple wireless system for transmitting data.(Youfan?Hu?and?Yan?Zhang?et?al.,Self-Powered?System?With?Wireless?Data?Transmission.Nano?letters,DOI:10.1021/nl201505c,2011)
Compare with traditional piezoelectric PZT, zinc oxide material has following advantage: 1, and zinc oxide nanowire can bear bigger deformation, can improve the stability and increase output voltage of nano generator work like this.2, zinc oxide nanowire can use the solution decomposition method on soft substrates such as plastics, to grow, and this means that nano generator can generate electricity in the substrate attached to softness, like skin of human body etc.3, zinc oxide material has good bio-compatibility, and toxicity is little.Because above-mentioned advantage, in the micro-nano power field, have very wide application prospect based on the TRT of zinc oxide nanowire, and in medical diagnosis and treatment, also have huge application potential.
The nano generator of reporting in the pertinent literature at present has two deficiencies: 1; The power source of nano generator comes from the outside, as: ultrasonic wave, the rotation of tire; Running of mouse and beating etc. of human pulse; The external force of these macroscopic aspect can not be integrated with the device of nanometer aspect, makes the nano generator can't individualism, must be attached on the power source.2, because the external force that nano generator utilized not is to continue to exist, but off and on, this makes the output of nano generator become unstable.
Summary of the invention
Main purpose of the present invention is that proposing to utilize biological tissue (such as the cardiac muscle cell) to drive nano generator generates electricity.Biological tissues such as cardiac muscle cell have excited Telescopic, come external force to zinc oxide nanowire to be provided through this telescopic process, drive nano generator work.
The structure of nano generator of the present invention specifically comprises a substrate, on substrate, is provided with groove; Opening part at groove is provided with insulating tape; Equally spaced local deposit zinc oxide seed layer on the insulating tape of softness, then a side of Seed Layer with above the depositing metal barrier layer, have the conductive metallic material layer in the opposite side deposit of metal barrier; Zinc oxide nanowire laterally carries on zinc oxide seed layer, is provided with single or a plurality of cardiac muscle cells in the said groove.

1, the size of piezoelectricity gesture: theoretical research shows, the size of piezoelectricity gesture is directly proportional with the deformation size that applies the nano wire that external force causes, with cube being inversely proportional to of the length of nano wire and diameter ratio.It is estimated, a diameter 50nm, the zinc oxide nanowire of length 600nm under external force, the piezoelectricity gesture of generation can reach 0.3V.(Yifan?Gao?and?Zhong?Lin?Wang?et?al,Electrostatic?Potential?in?a?Bent?Piezoelectric?Nanowire.The?Fundamental?Theory?of?Nanogenerator?and?Nanopiezotronics.Nano?letters,DOI:10.1021/nl071310j,2007)
2, press Potential Distribution: under external force, the piezoelectricity gesture of zinc oxide nanowire distribute with external force to apply direction closely related.When external force is lateral stress, the both sides of nano wire are in respectively and stretch and compressive state, and the side pressure electromotive force that stretches compresses a side pressure electromotive force for negative for just, and the piezoelectricity gesture direction of nano wire root for bearing, is compressed a side for just in the side that stretches.When along nano wire axially apply external force, the nano wire both sides all are to be in to stretch or compressive state, under extended state, the piezoelectricity gesture along stress direction from negative to just evenly increasing, under compressive state, the piezoelectricity gesture is pressing stress direction from just evenly reducing to negative.
3; The deformation that the nano generator that this patent proposed is produced under extraneous stress is single; This be because the diameter (tens nanometers are to 300 nanometers) of nano wire with respect to the thickness (micro-meter scale of flexible insulation adhesive tape; Like Kapton500HN, 120 microns) be very little, so the deformation of the deformation of nano wire and the KAPTON substrate surface that is depended on is consistent.
