  • Description:
    The emerging novel power generation technology of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) is attracting increasing attention due to its unlimited prospects in energy harvesting and self-powered sensing applications. The most important factors that determine TENGs’ electrical and mechanical performance include the device structure, surface morphology and the type of triboelectric material employed, all of which have been investigated in the past to optimize and enhance the performance of TENG devices. Amongst them, bioinspired designs, which mimic structures, surface morphologies, material properties and sensing/power generation mechanisms from nature, have largely benefited in terms of enhanced performance of TENGs. In addition, a variety of biomimetic applications based on TENGs have been explored due to the simple structure, self-powered property and tunable output of TENGs. In this review article, we present a comprehensive review of various researches within the specific focus of bioinspired TENGs and TENG enabled biomimetic applications. The review begins with a summary of the various bioinspired TENGs developed in the past with a comparative analysis of the various device structures, surface morphologies and materials inspired from nature and the resultant improvement in the TENG performance. Various ubiquitous sensing principles and power generation mechanisms in use in nature and their analogous artificial TENG designs are corroborated. TENG-enabled biomimetic applications in artificial electronic skins and neuromorphic devices are discussed. The paper concludes by providing a perspective towards promising directions for future research in this burgeoning field of study.
