dc.description.abstractTriboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are advanced energy harvesters that convert mechanical energy in diverse environments into electrical energy via static electrification and electrostatic induction. However, their performance needs to be improved to expand their area of use and become more practical. In this study, we introduced molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and tungsten disulfide (WS2) as separate additives into polyacrylonitrile (PAN) to produce composite nanofibers via electrospinning, aiming to increase the electrical output of the TENGs. This method increased contact area by narrowing the nanofiber diameters, which is a key factor in enhancing the triboelectric effect. The incorporation of MoS2 or WS2, characterized by high specific surface area, interface polarization, quantum confinement effects, and strong electron acceptance and trapping capabilities, led to a significant increase in the dielectric constant and overall electrical performance of the TENGs. Experimental evaluations, connecting the TENGs to circuits with various resistive loads, determined optimal performance at a load resistance of 4.7 M Omega. In particular, the 5 wt% WS2@PAN & polyvinylbutral (PVB) and 5 wt% MoS2@PAN & PVB TENGs exhibited a remarkable peak power output of 40.5 mW, corresponding to a power density of 25.3 W/m2 and provided open circuit voltage of 1,026 V. The integration of 5 wt% MoS2 or 5 wt% WS2 led to more than a twofold increase in electrical power density compared to pristine PAN. These outcomes demonstrate the significant impact of transition metal dichalcogenides in enhancing the energy conversion efficiency of contact-separation mode TENGs, thereby contributing to the advancement of energy harvesting technology.
