A multifunctional triboelectric nanogenerator based on PDMS/MXene for bio-mechanical energy harvesting and volleyball training monitoring.

ABSTRACT: Within the domain of wearable devices that are self-powered and sensory, triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have surfaced as a notable solution to meet the growing needs for energy harvesting. This study unveils an innovative wearable and stretchable multifunctional double-layered TENG, based on PDMS/MXene, known as PM-TENG. Furthermore, PM-TENG can also be used as a joint sensor to monitor the movement of athletes' joints during volleyball training. By augmenting the matrix with PDMS/MXene, which possesses dual capabilities-namely, charge capture and charge movement-the intermediary layer is integrated. This leads to a two fold increase in the ability to trap charges and the overall triboelectric performance. With a power density reaching 11.27 mW, it notably exceeds the performance of
