Charge mobile phone using power of sound


Nokia always gives surprises to users who sticks to them. Now they are getting ready to launch a new surprise regarding charging. Imagine a day in which we can charge our mobile phone using the sound from a football match, traffic, music or own voices. This could be an amazing feature isn’t it? But we have to wait for some more time because Nokia is doing further experiment on this charging project.

Dr Joe Briscoe and Dr Steve Dunn of Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) is teamed up for this experiment. They have selected nanotechnology which is very smaller than our hair. These materials have a lot of chemical properties. Due to its small size it could easily acquire the energy for movement which results in vibration. For this enough sound source is necessary.

Piezoelectric materials can generate voltage whenever its structure gets squashed or stretched. For this piezoelectric material Zinc Oxide is taken so that it converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. Zinc Oxide is made into Nano rods or Nano wires so it can be easily placed in any surfaces. This experiment get an output voltage of five volts which is enough to charge a Nokia Lumia 925.

The day in which we could forget about the power socket for charging mobile phone is not far away and think about a mobile phone which will fulfill all your dreams . . . !
