Abstract:Textile-based triboelectric nanogenerators (t-TENGs) have gained increasing interest for real-time mechanical energy harvesting and biomechanical sensing. However, it is challenging to realize t-TENGs with excellent wearability, integration ability, and sensing performance through a continuous manufacturing process. Here, a triboelectric yarn (YTENG) with a core−shell structure is developed through scalable wetspinning and braiding technologies using a conductive silver yarn as the core and a wet-spun PVDF yar… 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.
