▎ 摘  要

Flow-induced voltage generation on graphene has attracted great attention, but harvesting voltage by ionic liquid continuously flowing along graphene at macro-scale is still a challenge. In this work, we design a network structure of graphene grids (GG) woven by crisscrossed graphene micron-ribbons. The structure is effective in splitting the continuous fluid into "droplets" to generate consistent voltage using the mechanism of electrochemical energy generation. Key parameters such as flow rate, mesh number of GG, and slope angle are optimized to obtain maximum voltage in energy generation. The results suggest great potential of this graphene-based generator for future applications in energy harvesting. (C) 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
