(a) Influence of different conductive polymers on direct-current generator. Output currents (left panel) and output voltages (middle panel) of direct-current generators: Au/PPy/Al, Au/PEDOT/Al, Au/PANI/Au (4% compressive deformation), respectively. Right panel: The relationship of the output currents/voltages with varied contacted metals. (b) Influence of different Schottky-contacted metals (fixed the Ohmic-contacted metals) on PANI-based direct-current generator. Output currents (left panel) and output voltages (middle panel) of direct-current generators: Cu/PANI/Al, Cu/PANI/Ag, Au/PANI/Cu, Pt/PANI/Cu (4% compressive deformation), respectively. Right panel: the relationship of the output currents/voltages with varied contacted metals. (c) Influence of different contacted metals metals (fixed one Schottky-contacted metals) on PANI-based direct-current generator. Output currents (left panel) output voltages (middle panel) of direct-current generators: Ag/PANI/Cu, Ag/PANI/Al, Ag/PANI/Au, Ag/PANI/Pt (4% compressive deformation), respectively. Right panel: The relationship of the output currents/voltages with varied contacted metals.
