Performance enhancement of transparent and flexible triboelectric nanogenerator based on one-dimensionally hybridized copper/polydimethylsiloxane film

Gui-Zhong Li et al.

Summary: Wearable/portable devices require flexible, transparent, and lightweight power sources. In this study, flexible and transparent triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) were fabricated using cost-effective methods. By doping copper nanowires (Cu NWs) into the friction layers, the TENGs achieved high output voltages and power densities. The PDMS/Cu NWs-based TENG showed advantages such as ease of fabrication, good biocompatibility, flexibility, and transparency, making it a promising sustainable method for self-powered wearable/portable electronic devices.
