For the piezoelectric blocks 12 at section, under any specific stress, K, d33It is constant with ε, when known (n-1)th piezoelectricity
The position x of block 12n-1With length ln-1When, the position x of n-th of piezoelectric blocks 12 can be solvednWith length lnRecurrence formula:
xn=xn-1+ln-1+b+d+a (3)
In this way, passing through above-mentioned formula, it is only necessary to give the length of the 1st piezoelectric blocks 12 and apart from 11 fixed point O of cantilever beam
Distance, the length of all piezoelectric blocks 12 and distance apart from 11 fixed point O of cantilever beam can be acquired using above-mentioned recurrence formula.
In this way, the distance of the length and piezoelectric blocks 12 of different piezoelectric blocks 12 apart from fixed point O, root can be obtained accurately
The position that setting piezoelectric blocks 12 are removed according to corresponding data can further improve the electricity that 12 both ends of piezoelectric blocks of different location generate
The difference problem of potential difference is produced from charge and discharge electrical loss so as to improve piezoelectric blocks 12 even are eliminated.

10 work.
In some embodiments, insulating layer 114 is made of silicon nitride.
Using insulating layer 114 made of silicon nitride, thermal expansion coefficient is small, and electrical insulation capability is good, shoulders breakdown voltage height.Such as
This, in 10 course of work of energy harvester, heat and electric current that inside generates do not interfere with the performance of insulating layer 114, from
And promote the efficiency of energy harvester 10.
In some embodiments, basal layer 113 is made of SOI silicon.

Body silicon.Therefore, SIO silicon is the optimal material of basal layer.
In some embodiments, the thickness of first electrode 13 and second electrode 14 is identical as the thickness of piezoelectric blocks 12.
So setting enables to 10 manufacturing process of energy harvester simple, multiple first electrodes 13 and multiple second electricity
Pole 14 can be made of a kind of mode or a mold, facilitate manufacture.
In some embodiments, cantilever beam 11, basal layer 113 and insulating layer 114 are in rectangular patch substantially.
The setting of rectangular patch enables to the vibration of cantilever beam 11 more abundant.If 11 thickness of cantilever beam is excessive, outstanding
In 11 vibration processes of arm beam, thickness is excessively high to may cause 11 vibration intensity of cantilever beam and amplitude is not high.Therefore it is pressed on cantilever beam 11
The stress that electric block 12 is subject to is small, and the stress that piezoelectric blocks 12 are subject to is small to cause 12 deformation of piezoelectric blocks small.At this point, what piezoelectric blocks 12 generated
Electric energy is small, can be substantially reduced the efficiency of energy harvester 10 in this way.
In some embodiments, energy harvester 10 includes hold-down support 15, and fixing end 111 is fixed on hold-down support 15
On, hold-down support 15 and fixing end 111 are integrally formed.
In this way, integrally formed technique makes the production of hold-down support 15 become simpler, it is suitble to a large amount of manufacture productions
And it is even closer that integrated molding enables to hold-down support 15 to connect with fixing end 111, is not in because of hold-down support 15
Loosening leads to the non-serviceable situation of energy harvester 10.
In some embodiments, 15 rectangular-blocklike of hold-down support, the width of hold-down support 15 and the width of basal layer 113
Spend essentially identical, the side of hold-down support 15 and the substantially vertical connection in side of basal layer 113, the top surface of hold-down support 15 and base
The bottom surface of bottom 113 is substantially flush.
Specifically, the structure of rectangle is simple, so that the manufacturing process of hold-down support 15 is simple, convenient for large-scale raw
Produce manufacture.
In some embodiments, energy harvester 10 includes mass block 16, and free end 112 is fixed on mass block 16,
Mass block 16 and free end 112 are integrally formed.
In this way, integrally formed technique makes the production of mass block 16 become simpler, it is suitble to a large amount of manufacture productions simultaneously
And it is integrally formed that enable to mass block 16 to connect with free end 112 even closer, it is not in be led because mass block 16 loosens
Cause the non-serviceable situation of energy harvester 10.
More, during the work time due to energy harvester 10, cantilever beam 11 is ceaselessly to be vibrated, mass block
16 setting is able to ascend the gravity on free end 112, and then increases the amplitude of cantilever beam 11, and still, constantly vibration is easy
The loosening of mass block 16 is caused even to fall.Therefore, by mass block 16 and the integrally formed setting in free end 112, no matter outstanding
How arm beam 11 vibrates, and mass block 16 and free end 112 are all an entirety, will not loosen or fall.Therefore it improves
The service efficiency and the time limit of energy harvester 10.
In some embodiments, 16 rectangular-blocklike of mass block, the width of mass block 16 and the width base of basal layer 113
This is identical, the side of mass block 16 and the substantially vertical connection in side of basal layer 113, the bottom surface of hold-down support 15 and basal layer
113 top surface is substantially flush.
Specifically, the structure of rectangle is simple, so that the manufacturing process of mass block 16 is simple, convenient for large-scale production
Manufacture.Also, the setting of mass block 16 is able to ascend 11 vibration intensity of cantilever beam, and then promotes the efficiency of energy harvester 10.
In some embodiments, hold-down support 15 and mass block 16 are made of silicon, but are not limited to a kind of this material.
In some embodiments, the length of hold-down support 15 be greater than mass block 16 length and the thickness of mass block 16 with
The thickness of hold-down support 15 is identical.
The quality of fixing end 111 is greater than the quality of free end 112, therefore being capable of preferably fixed energies collector 10.Example
Such as, 10 operation of energy harvester, free end 112, which vibrates up and down, drives entire cantilever beam 11 to vibrate up and down, when fixing end 111
When weight deficiency, it may result in cantilever beam 11 and fixing end 111 driven to generate vibration, so influence whether entire cantilever beam 11
Vibration, and then influence the work of energy harvester 10.Therefore, when the weight of fixing end 111 is bigger, cantilever beam 11 vibrates
It not will drive free end 112 and generate unusual fluctuation, and then do not interfere with the work of energy harvester 10.
In some embodiments, cantilever beam 11 is in substantially rectangular patch, and including rectangular top, piezoelectric blocks 12 are in substantially
The direction of rectangular block shape, the polarization direction and fixing end 111 to free end 112 of piezoelectric blocks 12 is essentially identical.
In this way, the setting of 11 rectangular patch of cantilever beam enables to 11 deformation of cantilever beam more abundant, if cantilever beam 11
It is blocky setting, it is relatively difficult may result in deformation.Because the vibration of cantilever beam 11 is the up-down vibration by free end 112
To realize.Therefore, thickness will have a direct impact on the Oscillation Amplitude of cantilever beam 11, and the power of Oscillation Amplitude directly influences piezoelectric blocks
12 piezoelectric effect and then the generation for influencing electric energy.The polarization direction and fixing end 111 of piezoelectric blocks 12 arrive the side of free end 112
Piezoelectric blocks 12 could be enabled to generate piezoelectric effect and then produce electricl energy to essentially identical.

Specifically, aluminium nitride material is easy acquisition, aluminium nitride various electrical properties (dielectric constant, dielectric loss, bulk resistor
Rate, dielectric strength) excellent and aluminium nitride therein structure from polarity, do not need high temperature and pressure polarization after molding.Therefore, it contracts
The short preparation process of energy harvester 10.And silicon nitride stable chemical performance, therefore aluminium nitride is that piezoelectric blocks 12 are ideal
Material.
In some embodiments, adjacent first electrode 13 and the interval of second electrode 14 are arranged, adjacent first electrode
Spacing distance between 13 and second electrode 14 is identical.
The setting of 14 same intervals of first electrode 13 and second electrode can improve the piezoelectric blocks for even being eliminated different location
12 because caused by the potential difference that generates of left and right ends is excessive from charge and discharge phenomena the problem of.
In some embodiments, first electrode 13 and second electrode 14 are made of copper.
Copper is easily obtained, and with respect to the relative low price of copper for other conductive materials, can reduce energy harvester
10 production cost.Copper conducts electricity very well, and resistivity is low, not will cause the loss of energy in conveying energy process.Therefore
Copper is the ideal material of first electrode 13 and second electrode 14.
In some embodiments, energy harvester 10 further includes 17 He of the first link block being arranged on insulating layer 114

In this way, external electrical equipment is connect with the first link block 17 and the second link block 18, and external electrical equipment
A closed circuit is formed with the first link block 17, the second link block 18 and cantilever beam 11.As long as cantilever beam 11 receives outer
The vibrational energy on boundary is vibrated, and electric current will flow to outside and electricity is needed to set by the first link block 17 and the second link block 18
It is standby.
In some embodiments, the top of hold-down support 15 is arranged in the first link block 17 and the second link block 18.
In 10 course of work of energy harvester, free end 112 receives outside energy and is vibrated, and cantilever beam 11 is driven to shake
It is dynamic.At this point, fixing end 111 is fixed.If the first link block 17 and the second link block 18 are set on free end 112, that
