Description
Energy harvesting modules are becoming increasingly vital for developing autonomous, self-powered microelectronic devices. MXenes, a class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides/nitrides, have recently gained attention as promising candidates for energy applications due to their excellent electrical conductivity, large specific surface area, and tunable properties. MXene-based nanogenerators (NGs) represent a cutting-edge advancement in energy harvesting technology, harnessing the unique properties of MXenes to enhance performance. Incorporating MXenes into composite materials facilitates efficient ion/electron transport and increases the surface charge density, leading to higher output performance. Additionally, MXenes abundant functional groups and tunable surface properties enable strong interactions with polymer matrices, resulting in composites with superior mechanical strength and flexibility. This book chapter delves into the various properties of MXenes, highlighting their importance in energy harvesting technology and their inherent piezoelectric properties. It also covers using MXene-based composite materials in NG technology, focusing on MXenepolymer, MXenemetalorganic framework (MOF), and MXenecarbon composites. Additionally, the chapter discusses the applications of these composite-based NGs in various fields, including wearable technology and biomedical devices. Finally, the chapter summarizes the recent advancements in this field and future aspects in enhancing the use of MXene in energy harvesting technology. 2026 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
