Summary: Magneto-mechano-electric (MME) generator converts magnetic energy into electrical energy via mechanical strain/stress mediated magnetoelectric coupling effect. In this work, a hybrid multi-mode MME device is proposed with broadened bandwidth and enhanced energy harvesting performance by developing the constitutive equation of MME structure. The designed hybrid generator includes three power generation units: piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH) unit, electromagnetic energy harvesting (EEH) unit, and magnetostrictive energy harvesting (MEH) unit. Moreover, the corresponding energy harvesting management circuit is designed for these units to achieve the maximum harvest of magnetic field energy. At the magnetic field of 5.57 Oe, the maximum output power of the three generating units are 0.71 mW (PEH), 1.694 mW (EEH), and 0.27 mW (MEH), respectively. The proposed hybrid generator can provide a stable power for temperature and humidity sensors integrated with Bluetooth wireless communication technology by harvesting stray magnetic field energy, and has the potential to power wireless sensors.

Summary: This paper introduces the concept of a magnetic lens, composed of high permeability ceramic ferrites, to enhance the output performance of a Magneto-Mechano-Electric (MME) energy generator. By concentrating the weak magnetic flux onto the magnetic constituents in the MME structure, the magnetic lens increases the output voltage of the MME generator. The effectiveness of the magnetic lens as a magnetic flux concentrator is evaluated through Finite Elemental Analysis and experimentally verified using weak fields from a Helmholtz coil. Depending on the configuration of the magnetic lens, the output of the MME generator varies. A magnetic lens composed of four ferrites exhibited a 288% and 125% enhancement in output compared to the MME generator without a lens and with a lens composed of one ferrite, respectively.

Summary: The dynamics of a Brownian particle in Morse potential under thermal fluctuations is investigated by numerically integrating the corresponding Langevin equation. The dependence of Kramer's rate on temperature and viscosity of the medium is studied by mean first passage time. An approximate analytical expression for the rate constant is found and it shows a temperature dependent pre-factor for the Arrhenius equation. Numerical simulations are consistent with the analytical approximations.
