Abstract Piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH) holds great potential for flexible electronics and wearable devices. However, the power conversion efficiency of PEH (fPEH) has often been a limiting factor, especially under variable excitation. Herein, we propose practical solution: poly(L-lactic acid)-based fPEH with 3D-printed micro-zigzag structures. This design not only broadens operational bandwidth enhances low-frequency response but also offers tangible improvement in fPEH. The structure was designed fabricated using digital light processing 3D printing technique acrylates, method that is readily accessible to researchers engineers field. Mechanical properties acrylic elastomers different compositions were investigated obtain material parameters, then sandwich via sputtering packaging. Subsequently, numerical simulation conducted on structures determine sizes oscillation frequencies Finally, four 3-, 4-, 5- 6 mm lengths tested 51, 37, 22, 21 Hz consistent simulation. output voltages are 11–30 mV load ranges 60–100 MΩ. Stability evaluation showed can work low frequency (<100 Hz) broadband conditions. provided new insights fPEH, paving way more efficient harvesting solutions future.

Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZT(S,Se)) thin films exhibit the characteristics necessary to be effective absorbers in solar cells. In this report, room temperature experimental Raman scattering spectra, recorded at different excitation wavelengths, are systematically analyzed theoretically using results of DFT harmonic frequencies calculations Γ-point for various modifications kesterite (KS), stannite (ST), and pre-mixed Cu-Au (PMCA) crystal structures. The specific anharmonism‐induced features spectra CZT(S,Se) crystals identified, spectral lineshapes varied strengths anharmonic interaction simulated. A robust agreement between spectrum theoretical is demonstrated, ensuring reliability estimating parameters related effects. Therefore, our findings show that incorporating anharmonism as an additional contribution phonon particularly non-resonant cases, allows a more accurate description vibrational properties CZT(S,Se). This could play crucial role distinguishing phases materials open new possibilities fabrication cells with enhanced characteristics.
