A hybrid piezo/triboelectric nanogenerator (H/P-TENG) is designed for mechanical energy harvesting using polymer ceramic composite films; polydimethylsiloxane/Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O-3-0.5(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (PDMS/BZT-BCT) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). A lead-free BZT-BCT piezoelectric ceramic was prepared via...
