Abstract

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) possess significant attributes, such as a simple structure, high energy conversion efficiency, and ease of fabrication, rendering them crucial for powering mobile and distributed low-power electronic devices. In this study, a multilayer spring TENG with a cushion layer structure is proposed that enhances the output performance of the basic TENG structure. The fundamental topology of the energy harvesting circuit is chosen based on the electrical performance parameters of the generator and optimizes the selection of each electronic component in the actual circuit. This allows the small-size TENG (2 cm3) to have a high storable power density (5.45 mW m−2). Finally, the fabrication method of the small-size TENG and how to choose suitable electronic components based on the intrinsic electrical parameters of the TENG were summarized. This work provides valuable guidance for designing and fabricating self-powered IoT node devices.
