Health monitoring helps prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases, and has been given more and more attention in recent years. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are promising for applications in health monitoring due to their myriad of merits including low cost, simple fabrication, light weight, self‐powered property, and wide selection of materials. Here, the recent key research achievements in TENG‐based health monitoring are comprehensively reviewed. TENGs have been applied to detect not only motion‐based health conditions such as pulse and heartbeat but also nonmotion‐based health conditions such as CO2 concentration and lactate concentration. The design of device structure, sensing mechanism, device performance, advantages and disadvantages of each kind of TENG‐based health monitors are discussed. Based on recent progresses, the existing challenges and future prospects for TENG‐based health monitoring are also discussed and summarized.  相似文献

Motion tracking is of great importance in a wide range of fields such as automation, robotics, security, sports and entertainment. Here, a self‐powered, single‐electrode‐based triboelectric sensor (TES) is reported to accurately detect the movement of a moving object/body in two dimensions. Based on the coupling of triboelectric effect and electrostatic induction, the movement of an object on the top surface of a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) layer induces changes in the electrical potential of the patterned aluminum electrodes underneath. From the measurements of the output performance (open‐circuit voltage and short‐circuit current), the motion information about the object, such as trajectory, velocity, and acceleration is derived in conformity with the preset values. Moreover, the TES can detect motions of more than one objects moving at the same time. In addition, applications of the TES are demonstrated by using LED illuminations as real‐time indicators to visualize the movement of a sliding object and the walking steps of a person.  相似文献

Motion vector sensors play an important role in artificial intelligence and internet of things. Here, a triboelectric vector sensor (TVS) based on a direct‐current triboelectric nanogenerator is reported, for self‐powered measuring various motion parameters, including displacement, velocity, acceleration, angular, and angular velocity. Based on the working mechanism of the contact‐electrification effect and electrostatic breakdown, a continuous DC signal can be collected to directly monitor moving objects free from environmental electromagnetic signal interference existing in conventional self‐powered TVSs with an alternative‐current signal output, which not only enhances the sensitivity of sensors, but also provides a simple solution to miniaturize the sensors. Its sensitivity is demonstrated to be equivalent to state‐of‐the‐art photoelectric technology by a comparative experiment in an intelligent mouse. Notably, an intelligent pen based on the miniaturized TVS is designed to realize motion trajectory tracing, mapping, and writing on the curved surface. This work provides a new paradigm shift to design motion vector sensors and self‐powered sensors in artificial intelligent and internet of things.  相似文献

Cellulose‐based triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have gained increasing attention. In this study, a novel method is demonstrated to synthesize cellulose‐based aerogels and such aerogels are used to fabricate TENGs that can serve as mechanical energy harvesters and self‐powered sensors. The cellulose II aerogel is fabricated via a dissolution–regeneration process in a green inorganic molten salt hydrate solvent (lithium bromide trihydrate), where. The as‐fabricated cellulose II aerogel exhibits an interconnected open‐pore 3D network structure, higher degree of flexibility, high porosity, and a high surface area of 221.3 m2 g?1. Given its architectural merits, the cellulose II aerogel‐based TENG presents an excellent mechanical response sensitivity and high electrical output performance. By blending with other natural polysaccharides, i.e., chitosan and alginic acid, electron‐donating and electron‐withdrawing groups are introduced into the composite cellulose II aerogels, which significantly improves the triboelectric performance of the TENG. The cellulose II aerogel‐based TENG is demonstrated to light up light‐emitting diodes, charge commercial capacitors, power a calculator, and monitor human motions. This study demonstrates the facile fabrication of cellulose II aerogel and its application in TENG, which leads to a high‐performance and eco‐friendly energy harvesting and self‐powered system.  相似文献

A self‐powered, sliding electrification based quasi‐static triboelectric sensor (QS‐TES) for detecting angle from rotating motion is reported. This innovative, cost‐effective, simply‐designed QS‐TES has a two‐dimensional planar structure, which consists of a rotator coated with four channel coded Cu foil material and a stator with a fluorinated ethylenepropylene film. On the basis of coupling effect between triboelectrification and electrostatic induction, the sensor generates electric output signals in response to mechanical rotating motion of an object mounted with the sensor. The sensor can read and remember the absolute angular position, angular velocity, and acceleration regardless being continuously monitored or segmented monitored. Under the rotation speed of 100 r min?1, the output voltage of the sensor reaches as high as 60 V. Given a relatively low threshold voltage of ±0.5 V for data processing, the robustness of the device is guaranteed. The resolution of the sensor is 22.5° and can be further improved by increasing the number of channels. Triggered by the output voltage signal, the rotating characteristics of the steering wheel can be real‐time monitored and mapped by being mounted to QS‐TES. This work not only demonstrates a new principle in the field of angular measurement but also greatly expands the applicability of triboelectric nanogenerator as self‐powered sensors.  相似文献

The first contact‐mode triboelectric self‐powered strain sensor using an auxetic polyurethane foam, conductive fabric, and polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) is fabricated. Utilizing the auxetic properties of the polyurethane foam, the auxetic polyurethane foam would expand into the PTFE when the foam is stretched, causing contact electrification. Due to a larger contact area between the PTFE and the foam as the foam is stretched, this device can serve effectively as a strain sensor. The sensitivity of this method is explored, and this sensor has the highest sensitivity in all triboelectric nanogenerator devices that are used previously as a strain sensor. Different applications of this strain sensor are shown, and this sensor can be used as a human body monitoring system, self‐powered scale to measure weight, and a seat belt to measure body movements inside a car seat.  相似文献

A spherical three‐dimensional triboelectric nanogenerator (3D‐TENG) with a single electrode is designed, consisting of an outer transparent shell and an inner polyfluoroalkoxy (PFA) ball. Based on the coupling of triboelectric effect and electrostatic effect, the rationally developed 3D‐TENG can effectively scavenge ambient vibration energy in full space by working at a hybridization of both the contact‐separation mode and the sliding mode, resulting in the electron transfer between the Al electrode and the ground. By systematically investigating the output performance of the device vibrating under different frequencies and along different directions, the TENG can deliver a maximal output voltage of 57 V, a maximal output current of 2.3 μA, and a corresponding output power of 128 μW on a load of 100 MΩ, which can be used to directly drive tens of green light‐emitting diodes. Moreover, the TENG is utilized to design the self‐powered acceleration sensor with detection sensitivity of 15.56 V g‐1. This work opens up many potential applications of single‐electrode based TENGs for ambient vibration energy harvesting techniques in full space and the self‐powered vibration sensor systems.  相似文献

Dielectric elastomers are a type of actuator materials that exhibit excellent performance as artificial muscles, but a high driving voltage is required for their operation. By using the amazingly high output voltage generated from a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), a thin film dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) can be directly driven by the contact‐separation motion of TENG, demonstrating a self‐powered actuation system. A TENG with a tribo surface area of 100 cm2 can induce an expansion strain of 14.5% for the DEA samples (electrode diameter of 0.6 cm) when the system works stably within the contact‐separation velocity ranging from 0.1 to 10 cm s?1. Finally, two simple prototypes of an intelligent switch and a self‐powered clamper based on the TENG and DEA are demonstrated. These results prove that the dielectric elastomer is an ideal material to work together with TENG and thereby the fabricated actuation system can potentially be applied to the field of electronic skin and soft robotics.  相似文献

Motion tracking is a key area of sensor systems for security, transportation, and high‐tech industry. In this work, a self‐powered motion tracking system is developed to monitor moving speed, direction, acceleration, starting and ending positions, and even the moving path of a moving object. Such a system is based on a set of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) that are composed of two friction layers with opposite triboelectric polarities (Kapton and Aluminum) and operates in the sliding mode. Velocities of a moving object are monitored from ?0.1 m s‐1 to +0.1 m s‐1 at a step of 0.01 m s‐1, and accelerations from ?0.1 m s‐2 to +0.1 m s‐2 at a step of 0.02 m s‐2. Furthermore, an 8 × 8 two‐dimensional coordinates system with 16 groups of TENGs is created, and the moving path of an object is obtained. This study opens up a new area of TENGs as active sensors with great potential in self‐powered systems, positioning detecting, motion tracking, environmental and infrastructure monitoring, and security.  相似文献

The development of wearable and large‐area fabric energy harvester and sensor has received great attention due to their promising applications in next‐generation autonomous and wearable healthcare technologies. Here, a new type of “single” thread‐based triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) and its uses in elastically textile‐based energy harvesting and sensing have been demonstrated. The energy‐harvesting thread composed by one silicone‐rubber‐coated stainless‐steel thread can extract energy during contact with skin. With sewing the energy‐harvesting thread into a serpentine shape on an elastic textile, a highly stretchable and scalable TENG textile is realized to scavenge various kinds of human‐motion energy. The collected energy is capable to sustainably power a commercial smart watch. Moreover, the simplified single triboelectric thread can be applied in a wide range of thread‐based self‐powered and active sensing uses, including gesture sensing, human‐interactive interfaces, and human physiological signal monitoring. After integration with microcontrollers, more complicated systems, such as wireless wearable keyboards and smart beds, are demonstrated. These results show that the newly designed single‐thread‐based TENG, with the advantage of interactive, responsive, sewable, and conformal features, can meet application needs of a vast variety of fields, ranging from wearable and stretchable energy harvesters to smart cloth‐based articles.  相似文献

Self‐healing triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) with flexibility, robustness, and conformability are highly desirable for promising flexible and wearable devices, which can serve as a durable, stable, and renewable power supply, as well as a self‐powered sensor. Herein, an entirely self‐healing, flexible, and tailorable TENG is designed as a wearable sensor to monitor human motion, with infrared radiation from skin to promote self‐healing after being broken based on thermal effect of infrared radiation. Human skin is a natural infrared radiation emitter, providing favorable conditions for the device to function efficiently. The reversible imine bonds and quadruple hydrogen bonding (UPy) moieties are introduced into polymer networks to construct self‐healable electrification layer. UPy‐functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes are further incorporated into healable polymer to obtain conductive nanocomposite. Driven by the dynamic bonds, the designed and synthesized materials show excellent intrinsic self‐healing and shape‐tailorable features. Moreover, there is a robust interface bonding in the TENG devices due to the similar healable networks between electrification layer and electrode. The output electric performances of the self‐healable TENG devices can almost restore their original state when the damage of the devices occurs. This work presents a novel strategy for flexible devices, contributing to future sustainable energy and wearable electronics.  相似文献

A self‐powered, piezotronic effect‐enhanced glucose sensor based on metal‐semiconductor‐metal (M–S–M) structured single ZnO nanowire device is demonstrated. A triboelectrical nanogenerator (TENG) is integrated to build a self‐powered glucose monitoring system (GMS) to realize the continuously monitoring of glucose concentrations. The performance of the glucose sensor is generally enhanced by the piezotronic effect when applying a –0.79% compressive strain on the device, and magnitude of the output signal is increased by more than 200%; the sensing resolution and sensitivity of sensors are improved by more than 200% and 300%, respectively. A theoretical model using energy band diagram is proposed to explain the observed results. This work demonstrates a promising approach to raise the sensitivity, improve the sensing resolution, and generally enhance the performance of glucose sensors, also providing a possible way to build up a self‐powered GMS.  相似文献

Drug release devices of small molecules are widely used in cell stimulation, drug delivery, and microenvironment regulation. Herein, a flexible drug release device (FDRD) powered by a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is demonstrated, that has the superiority of low power consumption, flexible structure, and controllable release. In the self‐powered FDRD, the TENG can effectively harvest and transfer biomechanical energy into electricity. With a power management module, the TENG can provide a steady voltage supply for sustainable drug release, and the unique switchable wettability of poly(3‐hexylthiophene) films in Na2SO4 aqueous solutions can be regulated. The UV–vis absorption spectra of small molecules including methylene blue, fluorescein sodium, and rhodamine 6G released from the FDRD can be observed and recorded in real time. Furthermore, the releasing rate of conventional salicylic acid with the effect of removing cutin, sterilizing, and diminishing inflammation is also recorded in Na2SO4 aqueous solution. With the advantages of flexible structure, and controllable and sustainable release, the self‐powered FDRD is expected to find great potential in wearable medical devices, drug controllable release, and self‐powered therapy.  相似文献

Ultrathin piezoelectric nanogenerator (NG) with a total thickness of ≈16 μm is fabricated as an active or self‐powered sensor for monitoring local deformation on a human skin. The NG was based on an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) as an insulating layer grown on a thin Al foil by anodization, on which a thin film made of aligned ZnO nanowire compacted arrays is grown by solution chemistry. The performance of the NG is characterized with the assistance of the finite element method (FEM) simulation. The extremely thin NG is attached on the surface of an eyelid, and its output voltage/current characterizes the motion of the eye ball underneath. Since there is no external power needed for the operation of the NG, this self‐powered or active sensor can be effective in monitoring sleeping behavior, brain activities, and spirit status of a person as well as any biological associated skin deformation.  相似文献

Heavy metals contained in wastewater are one of the most serious pollutions in natural resources. A self‐powered electrochemical recovery system for collecting Cu ions in wastewater by incorporating a rolling friction enhanced freestanding triboelectric nanogenerator (RF‐TENG) is developed here. The RF‐TENG utilizes integrated cylindrical surfaces using the conjunction of rolling electrification and freestanding electrostatic induction, which shows outstanding output performance and ultrarobust stability. By using the kinetic energy of flowing water, a collection efficiency of up to 80% for Cu2+ ions in wastewater has been achieved. Self‐powered electrochemical systems are one of the most promising applications of TENGs for independent and sustainable driving of electrochemical reactions without the need for any additional power supply. This research is a substantial advancement towards the practical applications of triboelectric nanogenerators and self‐powered electrochemical systems.  相似文献

Traditional triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG)‐based self‐powered chemical‐sensing systems are demonstrated by measuring the triboelectric effect of the sensing materials altered by the external stimulus. However, the limitations of triboelectric sensing materials and instable outputs caused by ambient environment significantly restrict their practical applications. In this work, a stable and reliable self‐powered chemical‐sensing system is proposed by coupling triboelectric effect and chemoresistive effect. The whole system is constructed as the demo of a self‐powered vehicle emission test system by connecting a vertical contact–separate mode TENG as energy harvester with a series‐connection resistance‐type gas sensor as exhaust detector and the parallel‐connection commercial light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) as alarm. The output voltage of TENG varies with the variable working states of the gas sensor and then directly reflects on the on/off status of the LEDs. The working mechanism can be ascribed to the specific output characteristics of the TENG tuned by the load resistance of the gas sensor, which is responded to the gas environment. This self‐powered sensing system is not affected by working frequency and requires no external power supply, which is favorable to improve the stability and reliability for practical application.  相似文献

Sensitive monitoring and real‐time foot pressure mapping have important applications for medical treatment/diagnostics, sports training, and even security. In this work, a facile plantar pressure mapping system with a large pressure detection range using piezoelectric nanogenerators serving as the sensor array to acquire pressure signals, and a self‐designed data acquisition (DAQ) circuit board to process and wirelessly send the signals to a mobile terminal, such as a smart phone, are developed. Working with an application program developed in Android, the whole system can accurately monitor and visually display the real‐time pressure distribution during walking. More importantly, by combining a hybridized triboelectric–electromagnetic nanogenerator, a self‐powered, continuous, and real‐time pressure distribution monitoring system is developed, which provides a feasible solution for sport/exercise biomechanics information acquisition, injury prevention, and ulceration prediction in the feet.  相似文献

A novel self‐recovering triboelectric nanogenerator (STENG) driven by airflow is designed as active multifunctional sensors. A spring is assembled into the STENG and enables the nanogenerator to have self‐recovering characteristic. The maximum output voltage and current of the STENG is about 251 V and 56 μA, respectively, corresponding to an output power of 3.1 mW. The STENG can act as an active multifunctional sensors that includes a humidity sensor, airflow rate sensor, and motion sensor. The STENG‐based humidity sensor has a wide detection range of 20%–100%, rapid response time of 18 ms, and recovery time of 80 ms. Besides, the STENG could be utilized in the application of security monitoring. This work expands practical applications of triboelectric nanogenerators as active sensors with advantages of simple fabrication and low cost.  相似文献
