Zhen Wen,Zhen Wen,Zhen Wen,Min-Hsin Yeh,Min-Hsin Yeh,Hengyu Guo,Hengyu Guo,Jie Wang,Yunlong Zi,Weidong Xu,Jianan Deng,Lei Zhu,Xin Wang,Chenguo Hu,Liping Zhu,Xuhui Sun,Zhong Lin Wang,Zhong Lin Wang +17 more
TL;DR: A hybridized self-powered textile for simultaneously collecting solar energy and random body motion energy was demonstrated and can be easily woven into electronic textiles to fabricate smart clothes to sustainably operate mobile or wearable electronics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Standards and figure-of-merits for quantifying the performance of triboelectric nanogenerators
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of a TENG is defined as a combination of a structural figure-of-merit related to the structure and a material figure of merit that is the square of the surface charge density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Harvesting Low-Frequency (<5 Hz) Irregular Mechanical Energy: A Possible Killer Application of Triboelectric Nanogenerator
Yunlong Zi,Hengyu Guo,Hengyu Guo,Zhen Wen,Zhen Wen,Min-Hsin Yeh,Chenguo Hu,Zhong Lin Wang,Zhong Lin Wang +8 more
TL;DR: The possible killer application of a TENG for harvesting energy at low frequency from motions such as human motions for powering small electronics and possibly ocean waves for large-scale blue energy is verified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainably powering wearable electronics solely by biomechanical energy.
Jie Wang,Shengming Li,Fang Yi,Yunlong Zi,Jun Lin,Xiaofeng Wang,Youlong Xu,Zhong Lin Wang,Zhong Lin Wang +8 more
TL;DR: An approach that can continuously power wearable electronics only by human motion, realized through a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) with optimized materials and structural design is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
