The
flexible and stretchable electronics have been considered as next-generation
electronics. Stretchable triboelectric nanogenerators (S-TENGs) with
both multifunction and comfort have become a hot field of research
for wearable electronic devices recently. Here, we designed an all-nanofiber-based,
ultralight, S-TENG that could be softly attached on skins for motion
energy harvesting and self-powered biomechanical monitoring. The S-TENG
consisted of only two nanofiber membranes: a polyvinylidene fluoride
nanofiber membrane (PVDFNM) supported by thermoplastic polyurethane
nanofiber membrane (TPUNM) was used as the frictional layer, and a
multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) conductive material screen-printed
on the TPUNM was used as the electrode layer. Due to the excellent
stretchability of TPUNM, the S-TENG could generate electricity under
various types of deformation, and regains its original performance
after intense mechanical extension, even if it is partially cut or
damaged. Owing to the great electronegativity of PVDFNM, the device
generated a maximum voltage of 225 V and a current of 4.5 μA
with an electrode area of 6 × 1 cm<sup>2</sup>. The S-TENG has
great potential applications in self-powered wearable devices, electronic
skins, and smart sensor networks
