Abstract:Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have recently enjoyed rapid development due to their easy fabrication, stable outputs, and wide range of applications. By combining conventional textiles with TENGs, textile-based TENGs (t-TENGs) can be employed with wearable devices and smart textiles. The t-TENGs with a yarn structure, triboelectric yarns, can be directly used to conduct energy conversion and be processed into other energy-harvesting textile structures due to their lightweight, flexibility, and processabi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
