Exploration of 2D Ti3C2 MXene for all solution processed piezoelectric nanogenerator applications

Abstract A new 2D titanium carbide (Ti3C2), a low dimensional material of the MXene family has attracted remarkable interest in several electronic applications, but its unique structure and novel properties are still less explored in piezoelectric energy harvesters. Herein, a systematic study has be...
