Popis: | Flexible piezoelectric devices are attractive for energy conversion and strain sensing applications, including in the area of wearable electronics and self-powered sensors. Here, we report a piezoelectric nanogenerator/strain sensor based on lead (II) iodide (PbI2) nanosheets with the shape of two-dimensional (2D) structures, of which the piezoelectricity is not affected by the number of layers. A typical 2D piezoelectric device fabricated with 3 layers PbI2 nanosheets has recorded peak values of open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current and loading power as 29.4 mV, 20 pA, and 0.12 pW, respectively, and also possess good charging and integration capabilities. Moreover, these devices can be applied as self-powered strain sensors, with high sensitivity and excellent stability. As such, this study provides new knowledge and strategy for flexible energy harvesting or strain sensing devices based on 2D structures. |
