Ultrasonic vibration is an excellent mechanical power source owing to its large power density. Harvesting ultrasonic vibrations has been demonstrated so far through piezoelectric effect, triboelectric effect, and electromagnetic induction. However, the majority of these devices only produce AC output which limits their potential applications. This work demonstrates, for the first time, the conversion of ultrasonic vibration power to DC output using semiconducting wire-based electric generators, in which one or several semiconductor wire/metal junction(s) are employed. A current density of up to 19 µA/cm2 and a peak power density of 5 µW/cm2 can be obtained under ultrasonic vibrations up to 37 kHz. The mapping of the ultrasonic vibrational strength has been achieved, demonstrating the capability of a self-driven powered ultrasonic sensor. The characteristics of individual semiconductor junctions and the series connection of several such junctions are studied using equivalent circuits. [Display omitted] • First tribovoltaic device that is capable of harvesting ultrasonic waves. • Show that it is possible to model and analyse tribovoltaic devices using equivalent circuits. • Device is capable of also mapping ultrasonic vibration strength other than being an ultrasonic waves harvester.
