We provide a detailed insight into piezoelectric energy generation from arrays of polymer nanofibers. For sake of comparison, we firstly measure individual poly(vinylidenefluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFe)) fibers at well-defined levels of compressive stress. Under an applied load of 2 mN, single nanostructures generate a voltage of 0.45 mV. We show that under the same load conditions, fibers in dense arrays exhibit a voltage output higher by about two orders of magnitude. Numerical modelling studies demonstrate that the enhancement of the piezoelectric response is a general phenomenon associated to the electromechanical interaction among adjacent fibers, namely a cooperative effect depending on specific geometrical parameters. This establishes new design rules for next piezoelectric nano-generators and sensors.

Since AlN has emerged as an important piezoelectric material for a wide variety of applications, efforts have been made to increase its piezoelectric response via alloying with transition metals that can substitute for Al in the wurtzite lattice. Her
ein, we report density functional theory calculations of structure and properties of the Cr-AlN system for Cr concentrations ranging past the wurtzite-rocksalt transition point. By studying the different contributions to the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient, we propose that the physical origin of the enhanced piezoelectricity in Cr$_x$Al$_{1-x}$N alloys is the increase of the internal parameter $u$ of the wurtzite structure upon substitution of Al with the larger Cr ions. Among a set of wurtzite-structured materials, we have found that Cr-AlN has the most sensitive piezoelectric coefficient with respect to alloying concentration. Based on these results, we propose that Cr-AlN is a viable piezoelectric material whose properties can be tuned via Cr composition; we support this proposal by combinatorial synthesis experiments, which show that Cr can be incorporated in the AlN lattice up to 30% before a detectable transition to rocksalt occurs. At this Cr content, the piezoelectric modulus $d_{33}$ is approximately four times larger than that of pure AlN. This finding, combined with the relative ease of synthesis, may propel Cr-AlN as the prime piezoelectric material for applications such as resonators and acoustic wave generators.
We report piezoelectric response in liquid phase exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets with desired structure and morphology. The piezoelectric effect in liquid phase exfoliated few layers of MoS2 flakes is interesting as it may allow the scalable fabrication o
f electronic devices such as self-powered electronics, piezoelectric transformers, antennas and more. The piezo force microscopy (PFM) measurements were used to quantify the amplitude and phase loop, which shows strong piezoelectric coefficient. Herein, the piezoelectric response in few layers of MoS2 is attributed to the defects formed in it during the synthesis procedure. The presence of defects is confirmed by XPS analysis
We report the magnetic properties of magnetic nano-composite, consisting of different quantity of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles in polymer matrix. The nanoparticles exhibited a typical magnetization blocking, which is sensitive on the variation of magnetic f
ield, mode of zero field cooled/field cooled experiments and particle quantity in the matrix. The samples with lower particle quantity showed an upturn of magnetization down to 5 K, whereas the blocking of magnetization dominates at lower temperatures as the particle quantity increases in the polymer. We examine such magnetic behaviour in terms of the competitive magnetic ordering between core and surface spins of nanoparticles, taking into account the effect of inter-particle (dipole-dipole) interactions on nanoparticle magnetic dynamics.
The bulk piezoelectric response, as measured by the piezoelectric modulus tensor (textbf{d}), is determined by a combination of charge redistribution due to strain and the amount of strain produced by the application of stress (stiffness). Motivated
by the notion that less stiff materials could exhibit large piezoelectric responses, herein we investigate the piezoelectric modulus of van der Waals-bonded quasi-2D ionic compounds using first-principles calculations. From a pool of 869 known binary and ternary quasi-2D materials, we have identified 135 non-centrosymmetric crystals of which 48 systems are found to have textbf{d} components larger than the longitudinal piezoelectric modulus of AlN (a common piezoelectric for resonators), and three systems with the response greater than that of PbTiO$_3$, which is among the materials with largest known piezoelectric modulus. None of the identified materials have previously been considered for piezoelectric applications. Furthermore, we find that large textbf{d} components always couple to the deformations (shearing or axial) of van der Waals gaps between the layers and are indeed enabled by the weak intra-layer interactions.
A two-dimensional (2D) material system with both piezoelectricity and ferromagnetic (FM) order, referred to as a 2D piezoelectric ferromagnetism (PFM), may open up unprecedented opportunities for intriguing physics. Inspired by experimentally synthes
ized Janus monolayer MoSSe from $mathrm{MoS_2}$, in this work, the Janus monolayer $mathrm{CrBr_{1.5}I_{1.5}}$ with dynamic, mechanical and thermal stabilities is predicted, which is constructed from synthesized ferromagnetic $mathrm{CrI_3}$ monolayer by replacing the top I atomic layer with Br atoms. Calculated results show that monolayer $mathrm{CrBr_{1.5}I_{1.5}}$ is an intrinsic FM half semiconductor with valence and conduction bands being fully spin-polarized in the same spin direction. Furthermore, monolayer $mathrm{CrBr_{1.5}I_{1.5}}$ possesses a sizable magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE). By symmetry analysis, it is found that both in-plane and out-of-plane piezoelectric polarizations can be induced by a uniaxial strain in the basal plane. The calculated in-plane $d_{22}$ value of 0.557 pm/V is small. However, more excitingly, the out-of-plane $d_{31}$ is as high as 1.138 pm/V, which is obviously higher compared with ones of other 2D known materials. The strong out of-plane piezoelectricity is highly desirable for ultrathin piezoelectric devices. Moreover, strain engineering is used to tune piezoelectricity of monolayer $mathrm{CrBr_{1.5}I_{1.5}}$. It is found that compressive strain can improve the $d_{22}$, and tensile strain can enhance the $d_{31}$. A FM order to antiferromagnetic (AFM) order phase transition can be induced by compressive strain, and the critical point is about 0.95 strain. That is to say that a 2D piezoelectric antiferromagnetism (PAFM) can be achieved by compressive strain, and the corresponding $d_{22}$ and $d_{31}$ are 0.677 pm/V and 0.999 pm/V at 0.94 strain, respectively.
