Item type:Publication, An architected silk fibroin-lignin multilayer with deep-level trapping states for high-output triboelectric nanogenerators(2026-03-01) ;Suktep, Natdanai ;Sae-tang, Chanachot ;Ukasi, Sirinya ;Pakawanit, PhakkhanananSupansomboon, SupitchaBiopolymer-based triboelectric nanogenerators (B-TENGs) are promising power sources for sustainable and flexible electronics, but their performance is often limited by severe charge recombination at the triboelectric interface. To overcome this critical bottleneck, we report an architected multilayer B-TENG featuring a silk fibroin (SF)/MgAl LDH composite as the charge-generating layer and, to our knowledge, for the first time, a lignin-functionalized SF film as a dedicated charge-trapping layer. The strategic incorporation of lignin, an abundant and sustainable biopolymer, introduces deep-level electronic trapping states originating from its abundant aromatic moieties. That effectively suppresses interfacial charge recombination and prolongs charge lifetime. By optimizing the contents of MgAl LDH and lignin, the device achieves a measured open circuit output voltage ( V <inf> OC </inf>) and current density ( J <inf> SC </inf>) of 96 V and 6.56 μA/cm<sup>3</sup>, with a maximum output power ( P <inf> max </inf>) of 205 μW, corresponding to a power density of 22.7 μW/cm<sup>2</sup>. We also propose a mechanistic linking of deep-level traps to prolonged charge lifetime and increased net transferable charge. The interface-engineering strategy demonstrated here paves the way for developing high-performance and sustainable biopolymer-based TENGs and motion sensors.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Synergistic Integration of MgAl-LDH Nanosheets into Bacterial Cellulose for High-Performance Triboelectric Nanogenerators(2025-08-04) ;Mohsom, Phitchayaphorn ;Suktep, Natdanai ;Sae-Tang, Chanachot; Pakawanit, PhakkhanananA novel nanocomposite design is presented in which magnesium aluminum layered double hydroxide (MgAl-LDH) nanosheets are synergistically integrated with bacterial cellulose (BC) to fabricate a flexible triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). Utilizing a facile solution synthesis combined with a casting process, composite films with controlled MgAl-LDH loadings (0.25–5% v/v) were developed. The optimal composite, containing 1.5% v/v MgAl-LDH, exhibits an open-circuit voltage (V<inf>OC</inf>) of 88.5 V, a short-circuit current (I<inf>SC</inf>) of 87.7 μA, and a maximum output power (P<inf>max</inf>) of 1250 μW (power density ≈138 μW/cm<sup>2</sup>), which is > 35 times higher than that of pristine BC. Notably, this performance corresponds to a superior filler efficiency metric, demonstrating a highly effective use of the nanosheet additive compared to other reported systems. This performance enhancement is attributed to the multifunctional role of MgAl-LDH nanosheets in increasing the dielectric constant through improved interfacial conductivity and the formation of parallel microcapacitors under an induced electric field. Finite element simulations corroborate the proposed mechanism, and practical demonstrations show the nanocomposite powering 200 LEDs as well as functioning as a self-powered sensor for finger movement monitoring. These findings advance the development of high-performance, flexible energy-harvesting devices.2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Silk Fibroin/Amino Acid Hybrid Organic Piezoelectric-Triboelectric Nanogenerator(2023-01-01) ;Suktep, Natdanai; ;Pakawanit, Phakkhananan ;Noisak, JitrawanBongkarn, TheerachaiTriboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) with great performance and biodegradability are desired for the expansion of novel medical devices and wearable electronics. The present study aims at the preparation of natural silk in the form of silk fibroin (SF) film for utilization in TENG and further improving its output efficiency by embedding organic-piezoelectric gamma-glycine (γ-gly) amino acid to be a hybrid-organic piezoelectric/triboelectric nanogenerator (HO-P/TENG). The attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) results demonstrated the N-H, C = O, and C-N bonding for SF and SF/γ-gly, confirming its dominant effect with a strong electron-donating tendency from those amino groups. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) and synchrotron radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy (SR-XTM) images show good dispersibility of incorporated γ-gly on the surface and also inside the SF matrix relating to its content to improve the electrical performance homogeneously. By fabricating the device in the vertical contact-separation mode, the present SF/γ-gly HO-P/TENG at 15 wt% provides the maximum output voltage (V<inf>OC</inf>) and current (I<inf>SC</inf>) of 81 V and 121 μA with a maximum output power (P<inf>max</inf>) of 205 μW at the external load resistance of 5 MΩ. This SF-based HO-P/TENG has the advantage of being cost-effective with simple fabrication, demonstrating great promise for practical uses.1
