摘要
Paper-based generators are essential elements for building all paper-based systems. To obtain robust paper-based generators with outstanding high power outputs, this paper introduced a new type of double- folding paper-based generator by folding two paper components together. The output performance levels of the double-folding generator were twice higher than that of the single-folding and parallel-plate generators. A peak power of-3.24 mW was achieved under a stimulating frequency of 3 Hz. Furthermore, 47 light-emitting diodes （LEDs） were lit directly by a double-folding paper-based generator assembled to the crack of a door that opens and closes. This finding indicated the potential applications of the double-folding generator in the production of door ornaments or for security in places where doors frequently open and close.
