Abstract

MnO2 nanowires coated with conjugated microporous polymers (CMP) are applied as triboelectric energy harvesting materials. The tribopositive performance of the CMP shells is enhanced with the assistance of MnO2 nanowires (MnO2 NW), likely due to cationic charge transfer from the tribopositive CMP layers to the surface Mn2+ and Mn3+ species of MnO2 NW. This is supported by model studies. The MnO2@CMP-2 with sub-10nm thick CMP layers shows promising triboelectric output voltages up to 576V and a maximum power density of 1.31mWcm-2. Spring-assisted triboelectric nanogenerators fabricated with MnO2@CMP-2/PVP-3 films are used as power supplies to operate electronic devices.
