Introduction
Since the first invention of piezoelectric nanogenerators in 2006, piezo/triboelectric nanogenerators (PENG/TENG) and self-powered systems have experienced fast development both in fundamental science and technological innovations, deriving diversified applications and commercial opportunities for micro-nano energy sources, self-powered systems, intelligent interactive technology, wearable/implanted sustainable sensors/systems, blue energy, etc. PENG/TENG has also been demonstrated to modulate the transport properties of semiconductor devices for various sensors and self-powered systems, termed as piezotronics and tribotronics. Until now, advanced and intelligent manufacturing technologies for novel materials, sophisticated structures, and system integration are still highly demanded for further pushing forward the development of nanogenerators, piezo/tribotronics, and self-powered systems.
The aim of this special issue is to provide a forum to review cutting-edge manufacturing technologies and sophisticated applications in nanogenerators, piezo/tribotronics, and self-powered intelligent systems. Original work on new materials, new structure design, new applications, and novel manufacturing approaches of nanogenerators and self-powered systems are also strongly encouraged toward high-efficiency energy harvesting; energy-autonomy or sustainable smart systems; intelligent sensing applications; human-machine interaction; environmental monitoring; advanced flexible wearable/implantable electronics, etc.
Possible topics, within this scope, include but are not limited to:
Manufacture of nanogenerators and self-powered systems
Manufacture of piezotronics and tribotronics
Mechanisms of nanogenerators and piezo/tribotronics
Functional materials for nanogenerators and self-powered systems
Advanced fabrication/manufacture process for intelligent sensing systems
Advanced materials and technology for flexible wearable/implantable electronics
Integrated energy-autonomy or sustainable smart systems
Cutting-edge applications of nanogenerators and self-powered systems
