Eco-friendly triboelectric nanogenerator for self-powering stacked In2O3 nanosheets/PPy nanoparticles-based NO2 gas sensor
As atmospheric issues and energy crises worsen, developing environmentally friendly, low-cost, high-performance self-powered gas sensing systems for gas pollutant monitoring is crucial for the development of ecological civilization. In this work, an eco-friendly self-powered nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) sensor (EFNS) system based on an eco-friendly triboelectric nanogenerator (EF-TENG) is reported. The system comprises a power supply unit (EF-TENG) and a sensing unit (In 2 O 3 /PPy sensor), connected through a signal stabilization circuit. EF-TENG utilizes eco-friendly and biodegradable gelatin and PLA/PBAT as the friction layer. By introducing leaf structures on the gelatin surface using a template method , the output voltage and current of EF-TENG were increased by 1.44 and 1.67 times, respectively. The peak power density and root mean square power density of EF-TENG reached 1386 mW m −2 and 185.35 mW m −2 , respectively. Additionally, EF-TENG exhibited excellent long-term stability, maintaining a stable output voltage (∼24 V) after rectification and voltage stabilization treatment under conditions of 15–55°C and 40–80 % RH . Additionally, an In 2 O 3 /PPy heterostructure sensor was prepared, and the EFNS system was constructed through impedance matching effects, revealing the NO 2 response mechanism of the In 2 O 3 /PPy heterostructure . This achieved a wide detection range and highly sensitive (V g /V a = 355 %@30 ppm) detection of NO 2 . This work provides insights into eco-friendly self-powered gas sensors and sensing mechanisms, offering ideas for the development of environmental monitoring sensors and clean energy harvesting devices.
