    There is a need to develop inexpensive, lightweight, and flexible high-performance triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) from renewable resources. Here, a multifunctional cellulose filter paper (CFP)-based TENG consisting of dielectric Ti<inf>0.8</inf>O<inf>2</inf> nanosheets (Ti<inf>0.8</inf>O<inf>2</inf> NSs) and conducting Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) is prepared by a simple dip coating method. The incorporation of dielectric Ti<inf>0.8</inf>O<inf>2</inf> NSs onto the CFP significantly improves charge generation, while the inclusion of Ag NPs provides an electrically conductive path for charge transportation. The presence of these fillers can be deduced from XRD, SEM, EDS, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Their distribution is visualized in 3D by synchrotron radiation X-ray tomography. The present CFP-based TENG provides an output voltage and current density of ≈42 V and ≈1 µA cm<sup>−2</sup>, respectively with the power density of ≈25 µW cm<sup>−2</sup>. It is capable of lighting up 40 light-emitting diode bulbs and charging a 0.22 µF capacitor to 8 V in only 5 s. The developed TENG is also capable of detecting simple human motions, i.e., finger tapping, finger rubbing, and foot trampling. This work offers a facile design of low cost yet efficient paper-based TENG by dual modification with multifunctional nanomaterials, and also demonstrates its use as a feasible power source that not only drives small electronics, but also scavenges energy from human actions.

    We employ dielectric spectroscopy and the complex electric modulus formalism to characterize electrical properties of the Ti<inf>0.8</inf>O<inf>2</inf> nanosheets‒Ag nanoparticles‒cellulose filter paper composites, intended for use as a triboelectric nanogenerator. The addition of these fillers (5–17 atom% Ti and 1–6 atom% Ag) increases both the dielectric permittivity and AC conductivity while typically keeping the low loss tangent. The observed exponent to the frequency-dependent universal power law indicates the three-dimensional (3D) hopping mechanism in the composited films, contrasting with the 1D- or 2D-conduction in the ceramics. The electrical responses are also distinct from those of sole nanosheets, indicating some filler-matrix interactions. Electric modulus analyses indicate that the Ti<inf>0.8</inf>O<inf>2</inf> nanosheets act as a charge generation/reservoir, while the Ag nanoparticles generate long-range conduction paths. The relaxation time increases with the dielectric nanosheets content but decreases with metallic nanoparticle content. In addition, these co-fillers decrease the dielectric heating but increases the refractive index of the films. The simple analyses reported herein could be applied to other composites, providing a better understanding on the role of diverse functional co-fillers.
