“…This fundamental property finds extensive use in sensors, transducers, actuators, and energy harvesting devices, where ZnO efficiently converts mechanical energy into electrical signals and vice versa. 5 Advances in nanotechnology open new horizons in the world of science. Thanks to the advantages of nanofiber mats produced by electrospinning method, such as high porosity, pore size distribution, morphology, and high length/diameter ratio, nanofibers have many applications in fields such as medicine, filtration, drug release, tissue engineering, wound dressing, and smart textiles.…”

“…This dipole moment results in electric polarization, allowing ZnO to generate an electric voltage when stressed (direct piezoelectric effect) or change shape when subjected to an electric field (inverse piezoelectric effect). This fundamental property finds extensive use in sensors, transducers, actuators, and energy harvesting devices, where ZnO efficiently converts mechanical energy into electrical signals and vice versa 5 …”

“…2 Among those, ZnO due to its environmental friendly nature, easy-processability, low cost, and chemical stability is a unique material preferred in piezoelectric applications. 4 Use of ZnO in different shapes such as nanorods and nanowires, 5 types or the particle sizes [6][7][8][9] in piezoelectric polymer can increase power outputs. The piezoelectric behavior of zinc oxide arises from its crystal structure and the response of its charged ions to mechanical stress.…”

Today a wide variety of wearable electronics are in our daily lives and their uses are increasing. The development of portable, flexible, lightweight, cost‐effective, and stable devices that produce sustainable energy with renewable approaches in the field of wearable electronics, as in every field, is one of the important issues of today. According to their volume and weight, the use of nanofibers with high surface area in energy‐generating devices may bring them advantages such as lightness and higher energy density. Therefore, in recent years, researchers have focused on the development of nanofiber‐based nanogenerators that produce energy using mechanical energy in a sustainable and renewable way. In this paper, self‐standing piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) fabrics were obtained by developing flexible composite poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanofiber yarns doped with zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles at different rates to provide higher power output. It has been characterized from electromechanical, structural, and morphological aspects. The most successful self‐standing PENG fabric obtained (at 5% ZnO loading) doubled the energy output of the fabric made from pure PVDF nanofiber yarn and provided a peak total power of 81 μW and a power density of 30 μW/cm2. The present results open up the field for the development of PVDF/ZnO‐based nanomats and their use in sensors and actuators in the healthcare and engineering industries.

The huge number of electronic devices called the Internet of Things requires miniaturized, autonomous and ecologically sustainable power sources. A viable way to power these devices is by converting mechanical energy into electrical through electro-active materials. The most promising and widely used electro-active materials for mechanical energy harvesting are piezoelectric materials, where the main one used are toxic or not biocompatible. In this work, we focus our attention on biocompatible and sustainable piezoelectric materials for energy harvesting. The aim of this work is to facilitate and expedite the effort of selecting the best piezoelectric material for a specific mechanical energy harvesting application by comprehensively reviewing and presenting the latest progress in the field. We also identify and discuss the characteristic property of each material for each class to which the material belong to, in terms of piezoelectric constants and achievable power.
