Lead Zirconate Titanate Nanowire Textile Nanogenerator for Wearable Energy-Harvesting and Self-Powered Devices

Abstract: Wearable nanogenerators are of vital importance to portable energy-harvesting and personal electronics. Here we report a method to synthesize a lead zirconate titanate textile in which nanowires are parallel with each other and a procedure to make it into flexible and wearable nanogenerators. The nanogenerator can generate 6 V output voltage and 45 nA output current, which are large enough to power a liquid crystal display and a UV sensor.

“…The shortcoming for piezoelectric nanowire fabricated by electrospinning method has the high calcining temperature and shrinkage, which may lead to the performance deterioration to badly attach to the flexible substrate [102,108]. Qin et al [109] developed a suspending sintering technique for electrospinning nanowires to fabricate a flexible, dense, and tough PZT textile with aligned parallel nanowires. The maximum output voltage (6 V) and current (45 nA) for NG can light a commercial LCD and power a UV sensor to detect UV light quantitatively.…”

“…[11][12][13][14] In that pursuit, many researchers have demonstrated high-performance flexible energy harvesters using representative lead-based piezoelectric materials, e.g., Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 (PZT), 11,12,14,15 even for wearable/bioimplantable applications. [16][17][18][19][20] Although the lead-based materials have excellent piezoelectric properties, they should not be utilized in ecological/biological applications due to their toxicity, a legacy of the acknowledged Pb-related poisoning. [21][22][23] Several researchers have reported that PZT might be used for biological and in vivo applications, but these reports were only based on cell viability or histology over shortterm periods, 18,24,25 which cannot guarantee actual biocompatibility for long-term periods or repeated exposures.…”
