Fully stretchable and highly durable triboelectric nanogenerators based on gold-nanosheet electrodes for self-powered human-motion detection

Fully stretchable and durable triboelectric nanogenerator with gold nanosheet embedded into both PDMS matrix and micro pyramid patterned PDMS has been successfully demonstrated in both pushing and stretching modes, then the durability test with 10,000 cycles. As our device is applied to hand joints, the possibility of self-powered systems as power source for wearable applications has been shown.176
