In APL Materials, researchers tested a molecular energy harvesting device that captures the energy from the natural motion of molecules in a liquid. Their work showed molecular motion can be used to generate a stable electric current.

When the zinc oxide material waves, bends, or deforms under motion, it generates electric potential.
