| description | Piezoelectric materials such as ZnO semiconductors and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) have been extensively studied to produce flexible wearable devices, providing a viable method for energy collection. In this study, PVDF was mixed with ZnO nanoparticles to prepare PVDF/ZnO devices by electrospinning. The composite ZnO affects the diameter of electrospun fibers and the output performance of the devices. As ZnO was added, the diameter of the fibers decreases, but the output current of the devices increases. Moreover, compared with pristine PVDF, the bending output current and pyroelectric current of the devices were improved after mixed with ZnO. The results indicated that PVDF/ZnO composite was a promising flexible device that can provide power for small electronic devices. |
