The triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) as a new power-generation technology was reported by Wang and co-workers in 2012. Because of its great potential for scavenging mechanical energy from living environment and sustainably driving portable devices, many researchers have developed various methods to improve output performances of TENG. In this paper, we review the progress in TENG made as flexible power sources by integrating flexible materials and stretching structures, especially for the applications of flexible electronics. For optimizing performances of TENG, the structural designs, material selections, and hybrid energy cells are presented. The reported TENG as flexible power sources has the potential applications in lighting up light emitting diodes (LEDs), powering sensors, and monitoring biomechanical motions.

Wang及其同事在2012年报道了摩擦电纳米发电机（TENG）作为一种新的发电技术。由于它具有巨大的潜力，可以从生活环境中清除机械能并可持续驱动便携式设备，因此许多研究人员已经开发出各种方法来改进滕的输出表现。在本文中，我们将通过集成柔性材料和拉伸结构来回顾TENG作为柔性电源的进展，特别是对于柔性电子产品的应用。为了优化TENG的性能，提出了结构设计，材料选择和混合能源电池。据报道，作为柔性电源的TENG在照明发光二极管（LED），为传感器供电以及监视生物力学运动方面具有潜在的应用。
