A - Transducer principles
Energy-autonomous microsystems are well suitable for various application szenarions and locations. Thereby, the available ambient energies will differ in type and intensity. In every case, electrical energy must be scavenged to power the embedded microsystems. Therefore, the energy conversion is a main topic of the reserach train group with a special focus on transducer principles for mechanical, thermal and chemical energy.
