More Powerful Twistron Carbon Nanotube Yarn Mechanical Energy Harvesters

Zhong Wang et al.

Summary: This study improves the performance of twistron harvesters by optimizing the alignment of precursor CNT forests, stretching the precursor twisted yarn, applying higher tensile loads during pre-coiling, using electrothermal pulse annealing, and incorporating reduced graphene oxide nanoplates. The peak output power is significantly increased at both 1 Hz and 30 Hz frequencies, with the latter achieving a 13-fold improvement compared to previous harvesters. The maximum energy conversion efficiency is also greatly improved. Twistron anode and cathode yarn arrays are stretched out-of-phase to double the output voltage.

Gel-Electrolyte-Coated Carbon Nanotube Yarns for Self-Powered and Knittable Piezoionic Sensors

Min Li et al.

Summary: Piezoionic materials show potential as smart soft materials due to their similarity to biological systems in signal generation and transmission. A new study demonstrates the piezoelectric effect on an electrolyte-coated high-surface-area carbon nanotube yarn, allowing for the generation of large voltage gradients without an external bias. The yarn can be used in self-powered sensor gloves for hand gesture recognition and human-machine interactions.
