Abstract

Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is favorable for harvesting adaptable and complex biomechanical energy in our daily life. Here, silicon rubber/expandable microsphere TENG was achieved by spin-coating a mixture of expandable microspheres and silicon rubber on a flat plate with conductive fabric. Furthermore, self-made flexible TPU/MWCNTs electrodes replaced commercial conductive fabric to make TENG more adapt to skin of human body. Finally, the optimized TENG in this work demonstrates energy harvesting capabilities and can be applied in self-powered sensor systems and provides new dimensions for biomechanical energy harvesters and wearable self-powered electronics.
