Newbie level 1
Hi I am doing a personal coursework presentation and hit something that is quite technical.
Not sure where to post this.
I am planning to explain how to embed this into a cell phone's circuit to charge the battery on the go.

The item in the link above is called a nanogenerator.
Quote from article: "their nanogenerator could produce as much as 4 watts per cubic centimeter – based on a calculation for a single nanowire."
what does this mean?
does it mean that, theoretically, a total of 1 cubic centimeter of this wire can produce up to 4 watts of electricity?

The link above quotes:"Our next goal is to grow bigger nanowire arrays to raise the nanogenerators' current to microamperes, and to build a three-dimensional structure to raise the voltage to 0.5 V so that it can be used for powering devices."
what does this mean?
what is the current voltage produced?
obviously it is not enough to charge a 3V cellphone battery?
------------------------------------
Can I use opAmp or transistor to couple a few nanogenerators together and step-up the voltage?, and then it will be able to charge the battery? feasible?
-----------------------------------
please don't hesitate to bombard me with criticisms on how my idea WON'T work. but please make them constructive.

i also found that a cell phone battery on average requires 6 watts for about 2 hours to fully charge
