EnSO (Energy for Smart Objects)
Project coordinator : STMicroelectronics Tours (2016-2017) – CEA-LETI (2018-2020). Objectives of the full project : to develop new technologies for AMES (Autonomous Micro Energy Sources) and to demonstrate their competiveness and manufacturing readiness. GREMAN partners in the consortium : University of Liège, PRAYON, Fraunhofer IIS. Objectives : to develop an innovative synthesis method of high quality ZnO NWs for mechanical energy harvesting; to evaluate the feasibility of technological process transfer to industry; to propose a demonstrator including the dedicated harvesting circuit. |
