Endowing photodetectors with mechanically flexibility and actual functionality are current research issues in developing optoelectronic devices. However, rigid metal-based or metal-oxide-based electrodes remain a block to the realization of ultraflexible electronics. Thus, an ultraflexible all-organic photodetector (all-OPD) is designed by innovatively introducing symmetrical organic electrodes PH1000/PH1000 to substitute the widely applied indium-doped tin oxide (ITO)/Ag electrodes. Specifically, this all-OPD exhibits a high self-powered responsivity (R) of over 100 mA W among 500-600 nm and the photocurrent remains about 80% of the original performance after being bent 20 000 circles, and can output steady biosignals for photo-plethysmography (PPG) application. More importantly, this all-OPD outputs dual-polarity photocurrent as it is flipped or folded. Benefitting from the ordered phase distribution and designed Schottky barrier heights, the photogenerated holes will be transferred and collected by nearer electrode, while electrons will be trapped in the thick bulk heterojunction (BHJ) as a result of the long channel. This work offers a new avenue toward developing a multifunctional and ultraflexible all-OPD with a straightforward all-solution method, and it is expected to be more compatible in complex application scenarios.

Polyaniline (PANI), a typical organic photocatalyst, has an adjustable structure and good stability, can be easily synthesized on a large scale, and is economical. PANI is doped with ions to regulate its internal structure and improve its photocatalytic performance. However, its photocatalytic performance is limited by the doping concentration and its intrinsic properties, hindering its further application.

The development of wearable electronics has led to the growing demand for the self-powered and maintenance-free power sources. Under these circumstances, thermoelectric generators are considered promising candidates, which can directly convert body heat into electricity to power wearable electronics. However, most of the thermoelectric materials are either brittle or unrecoverable under external physical damage.

Due to their electrically polarized air-filled internal pores, optimized ferroelectrets exhibit a remarkable piezoelectric response, making them suitable for energy harvesting. Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) ferroelectret films are laminated with two fluorinated-ethylene-propylene (FEP) copolymer films and internally polarized by corona discharge. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)-coated spandex fabric is employed for the electrodes to assemble an all-organic ferroelectret nanogenerator (FENG).

Rapid development of wearable electronics, piezoelectric nanogenerator (PNG), has been paid a special attention because of its sustainable and accessible energy generation. In this context, we present a simple yet highly efficient design strategy to enhance the output performance of an all-organic PNG (OPNG) based on multilayer assembled electrospun poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanofiber (NF) mats where vapor-phase polymerized poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-coated PVDF NFs are assembled as electrodes and neat PVDF NFs are utilized as an active component. In addition to the multilayer assembly, electrode compatibility and durability remain a challenging task to mitigate the primary requirements of wearable electronics.
