Figure 1: Overview of the TENG.
From: Sustainably powering wearable electronics solely by biomechanical energy
(a) TENG weaved into a coat and assembled under shoes to drive wearable electronics such as an electronic watch and a fitness tracker. (b) Photograph showing TENG tubes in diameter of 2–3 mm weaved into textile. (c) Photograph showing TENG-tubes fixed under a shoe. (d) Structure sketch of the TENG tubes. (e) Enlarged view of the TENG structure. (f) SEM image of the triboelectric electrode surface. The inset shows the SEM image of the carbon black/CNTs mixture, which is the conductive ingredient of the inner and outer electrodes. Scale bars in b, f and the inset in f are 1 cm, 5 μm and 500 nm, respectively.
