Abstract
In this study, flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators (PNGs) were fabricated using the composite fibers which were prepared by combining polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) and nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) nanoparticles (NPs) at a concentration of 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 wt%. The piezoelectric properties of PNG indicate that the PVDF/NiFe2O4 fibers containing NiFe2O4 NPs at a concentration of 10 wt% has a higher power efficiency of 5.4% at 20 Hz compared to that of the pure PVDF fibers at 10 Hz, under the same resistive load of 2.5 MΩ. The magnetoelectric properties of PNG show that the PNG with PVDF+7 wt%NiFe2O4 supplied the highest electrical power of 0.40 μW under a resistive load of 750KΩ while it reached a maximum voltage value of 17.50 mV at the same load resistive load for a low-level magnetic field of 50 Hz frequency.
