PVDF-based nanocomposite films are promising in fabrication flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators for self powered portable devices. In this work, a double-layered heterostructure was designed and the PVDF nano composite films contained with barium titanate nanoparticles were prepared by solution spin coating. The nanofillers were concentrated distributed in one layer of half the film, and the remaining half was neat PVDF layer. The double-layered BT/PVDF films were characterized comparatively with their counterpart of single-layer films. Although containing with less content of BT nanoparticles and lower proportion of beta-phase in polymer, the piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) devices fabricated by double-layered films represent higher piezoelectric outputs in mechanical-to-electric conversion measurement. The charges accumulated at the additional interlayer interface between BT/PVDF layer and PVDF layer contributes much to enhancing electric capacity of the film. Benefited from good interfacial adhesion and better flexibility, the mechanical property and cyclic endurance are also improved. The double-layer film contained with 20 vol fractions (vol%) BTNPs represent excellent comprehensive performance of 6.7 V in output voltage, 2.4 mu A in output current, and good stability changed within 3% in more than one thousand circles. The double-layer constructure is promising in nanocomposite films to develop PENGs for self-powered devices.
