Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have been widely investigated to harness mechanical energy that is driven by repetitive human motion. Conventional human motion-driven TENGs are mostly based on contact-separation (CS) mode, but their energy harvesting performance is limited due to the high crest factor (the ratio of the peak to the RMS value of output voltage). Here, we demonstrate a new rolling type triboelectric nanogenerator (RL-TENG), exhibiting the lower crest factor than CS mode TENGs, using a metal layer and graphene nanoplatelets-doped PDMS. These additions helped improve the dielectric constant and the charge storage capacity of the TENG, which led to a high electrical output while minimizing surface damage. As compared to a pristine TENG, our device, a RL-TENG, generated an open-circuit peak voltage of 75.2 V, which was almost 15 times higher than that of the pristine device, and a short-circuit peak current of 7.36 mu A, which was 12 times higher. With a dual-side double-belt TENG (DB-TENG), these values were improved to 164 V and 10 mu A. Lastly, our device was used in a real-life application, to harvest mechanical energy from the movement of the human elbow while walking, and was able to produce a high voltage output of up to 821 V. These results show that the DB-TENG can be used for high-efficiency harvesting of energy from human motion. (c) 2021 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Ltd.
