【 摘 要 】

This paper is on the proposal of the methodology for the design and fabrication of the piezoelectric energy harvesting devices in viewpoint of the justification both structural and material properties. There has been developing various kinds of energy harvesting techniques using piezoelectric films. Most of them are for the justification of the design or the circuit. The output of the piezoelectric harvester is the product of the material and structural parts. It is, therefore, necessary to justify both of them simultaneously. In this paper cantilever structure was fabricated for the improvement of the power generation in the low frequency region. The resonant frequency and output voltage and charge from the following theory formula were calculated in this study.
