A wide-band resonating thin film PZT MEMS energy harvester has been designed, modeled, fabricated, and tested. It harvests energy from parasitic ambient vibration with a wide range of amplitude and frequency via piezoelectric effect. Contrary to the traditional designs based on high-Q cantilever beams which use the bending strain, the new design utilizes the tensile stretching strain in doubly-anchored beams. Our design exploits the nonlinearity of the stretching beam that enables a wide-band resonance and thereby a robust power generation amid the uncertainty of the input vibration spectrum. The device is microfabricated by a combination of surface and bulk micromachining processes. Released devices are packaged, poled and electromechanically tested to verify the wide-bandwidth nonlinear behavior of the system.
