摘要
In this paper, we have demonstrated 3D branched ZnO nanotrees (ZNTs) on flexible ITO-PET substrates by a facile two-step hydrothermal approach. The characterization of the as-grown ZNTs was studied by using SEM and XRD. Furthermore, self-powered piezoelectric nanogenerators (NGs) based on these ZNTs were fabricated. It is proved that the ZNT structures could significantly enhance the output current to similar to 300 nA, much higher than that of the previously reported NWs-based NGs, and their application toward energy harvesting devices is promising for the miniaturization of a power package and wearable devices.
