Abstract:
A method is provided for producing an electrically-powered device and/or component that is embeddable in a solid structural component, and a system, a produced device and/or a produced component is provided. The produced electrically powered device includes an attached autonomous electrical power source in a form of a unique, environmentally-friendly structure configured to transform thermal energy at any temperature above absolute zero to an electric potential without any external stimulus including physical movement or deformation energy. The autonomous electrical power source component provides a mechanism for generating renewable energy as primary power for the electrically-powered device and/or component once an integrated structure including the device and/or component is deployed in an environment that restricts future access to the electrical power source for servicing, recharge, replacement, replenishment or the like.

Claim (Index 1):
An electrically-energized device, comprising:\n an electrical power source configured to provide electrical energy to power the at least one of the electrically-energized sensor and the electrically-energized communication element, the electrical power source including one or more electrical power source components, at least one of the one or more electrical power source components comprising: a first conductor formed of a first conductive material and having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface of the first conductor facing away from a build surface and being conditioned to have a first work function value, a dielectric layer with a thickness in a range of 200 angstroms or less formed over the conditioned first surface of the first conductor; and a second conductor formed of a second conductive material and having a first surface with a second work function value, and having a second surface, and being arranged over the dielectric layer such that the first surface of the second conductor faces the dielectric layer, the first conductor, the dielectric layer and the second conductor forming a layered structure of the electrical power source component; a first electrical lead and a second electrical lead electrically connecting the at least one of the electrically-energized sensor and the electrically-energized communication element with the electrical power source; the first work function value and the second work function value being in a range of 5.0 electron volts (eV) or less; and the first work function value being at least 1.0 eV less than the second work function value; wherein said electrical power source is disposed in proximity to, and is in thermal communication with, said at least one of an electrically-energized sensor and an electrically-energized communication element, such that thermal energy is communicated from said at least one of an electrically-energized sensor and an electrically-energized communication element to said electrical power source when said at least one of an electrically-energized sensor and an electrically-energized communication element receives electrical power from said electrical power source.
