Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrated a multiscale micro- and nano-structured magneto-mechano-triboelectric nanogenerator (MMTENG) enabled by a salt particle imprinting process to power an internet of thing (IoT) sensor. The fine salt particles were utilized to form a multiscale structure on a triboelectric polymer film by mechanical pressure via an eco-friendly, low-cost, and simple process, thereby reinforcing the contact triboelectrification and electrostatic induction. The surface modified MMTENG can generate an open-circuit peak-to-peak voltage of 851 V, a short-circuit current of 155 μA, and a maximum peak power of 10.3 mW under an AC magnetic field of 8 Oe. The energy device also presented output stability over 124 million operating cycles. Finally, the electricity of the surface enhanced MMTENG device was directly utilized to power an IoT temperature sensor with integration of an energy harvester, energy conversion circuit, and storage capacitor.
