A Self-Charging Power Unit by Integration of a Textile Triboelectric Nanogenerator and a Flexible Lithium-Ion Battery for Wearable Electronics

A novel integrated power unit realizes both energy harvesting and energy storage by a textile triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG)‐cloth and a flexible lithium‐ion battery (LIB) belt, respectively. The mechanical energy of daily human motion is converted into electricity by the TENG‐cloth, sustaining...

Description
Summary:	A novel integrated power unit realizes both energy harvesting and energy storage by a textile triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG)‐cloth and a flexible lithium‐ion battery (LIB) belt, respectively. The mechanical energy of daily human motion is converted into electricity by the TENG‐cloth, sustaining the energy of the LIB belt to power wearable smart electronics.
