Sumario:In the past decades, the progress of wearable and portable electronics is quite rapid, but the power supply has been a great challenge for their practical applications. Wearable power sources, especially wearable energy-harvesting devices, provide some possible solutions for this challenge. Among various wearable energy harvesters, the high-performance fabric-based triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are particularly significant. In this review paper, we first introduce the fundamentals of TENGs and their four basic working modes. Then, we will discuss the material synthesis, device design, and fabrication of fabric-based TENGs. Finally, we try to give some problems that need to be solved for the further development of TENGs.
