Energy harvesting plays an important role in advancing personalized wearables by enabling continuous monitoring, enhancing wearable functionality and facilitating sustainable solutions. We aimed to develop a flexible piezoelectric energy harvesting system based on inorganic piezoelectric materials that convert mechanical energy into electricity to power a wide range of mobile and portable electronic devices. There is significant interest in flexible piezoelectric energy harvesting systems that use inorganic piezoelectric materials due to their exceptional physical features and prospective applications. Herein, we successfully demonstrated a flexible piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) designed by the co-doped rare-earth element ceramics (RE-PMN-PT) embedded in PVDF and PDMS composite film and attained a significant output performance while avoiding electrical poling process. The impact of dielectric characteristics on the electrical output of nanogenerators was investigated, together with the structure of the composites. The Sm/La-PMN-PT particles effectively amplify both the voltage and current output, showcasing their potential to power portable and wearable devices, as demonstrated by their capacity to illuminate LEDs. The maximal output power of 2 mW was correlated with the high voltage (220 V) and current (90 µA) of Sm/La-PMN-PT/PVDF, which demonstrated that the device has the potential for energy harvesting in biomedical applications.
