The harvesting of ambient energy to power small electronic components has received tremendous attention over the last decade. The research goal in this field is to enable self-powered electronic components for use particularly in wireless sensing and measurement. Thermal energy due to temperature gradients, solar energy and ambient vibrations constitute some of the major sources of energy that can be harvested. The process of extracting energy from the surrounding environment is termed as energy harvesting. There are various forms of energy that can be scavenged, like thermal, mechanical, solar, acoustic, wind, and RF-wave
