Abstract :
The development of renewable, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective energy sources has increasingly become important to meet the energy demands of the future. Piezoelectric energy harvesting devices have gained wide popularity in recent years due to their superior power densities, high energyconversion efficiency, simpler architectures, and highscalability, having wide applications across various fields including sensors, actuators, portable electronics, nanogenerators and biomedicine. Despite tremendous progress, there still remains a challenge in synthesizing biocompatible energy harvesting devices. While various other natural biomaterials have several limitations, M13 bacteriophages (one type of virus) have proved to be very promising for the fabrication of functional devices due to their unique characteristics. To enhance the power of thesebiocompatible piezoelectric energy harvesting devices, the surface properties of M13 bacteriophages have been modified, controlling dipole moment alignment, hence increasing power output.
In this seminar, I will discuss the unique characteristics of M13 bacteriophage and the various developments in designing M13 bacteriophage-based energy harvesting devices.
