Effects of electrode materials on solution-processed polyvinylidene fluoride-based piezoelectric nanogenerators: do they matter?

Numbers of energy harvesting studies have reported that using the appropriate electrode materials could enhance the electrical output performance of the energy harvesters. In this work, we fabricated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-based piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) using the solution-process...
