Silicone-Based Multifunctional Thin Films with Improved Triboelectric and Sensing Performances via Chemically Interfacial Modification.

ABSTRACT: The development of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) technology has advanced in recent years. However, TENG performance is affected by the screened-out surface charge density owing to the abundant free electrons and physical adhesion at the electrode-tribomaterial interface. Furthermore, the demand for flexible and soft electrodes is higher than that for stiff electrodes for patchable nanogenerators. This study introduces a chemically cross-linked (XL) graphene-based electrode with a silicone elastomer using hydrolyzed 3-aminopropylenetriethoxysilanes. The conductive graphene-based multilayered electrode was successfully assembled on a modified silicone elastomer using a cheap and eco-friendly layer-by-layer assembly method. As a proof-of-concept, the droplet-driven TENG with the chemic
