Electric Eel‐Skin‐Inspired Mechanically Durable and Super‐Stretchable Nanogenerator for Deformable Power Source and Fully Autonomous Conformable Electronic‐Skin Applications

Electric eel-skin-inspired mechanically durable and super-stretchable nanogenerator is demonstrated for the first time by using triboelectric effect. This newly designed nanogenerator can produce electricity by touch or tapping despite under various extreme mechanical deformations or even after experiencing damage. This device can be used not only as deformable and wearable power source but also as fully autonomous and self-sufficient adaptive electronic skin system.
