Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>The flexible piezoelectric fibers can be stretched to a tensile strain of 5% and can generate over 50 μW·cm⁻³.The FPFs are sufficiently robust for knotting, sewing and weaving and can also be converting to piezoelectric coils by twist insertion. These spring‐like coils can be reversibly stretched to 50% strain without failure. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj2n0rtz4n" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
