Abstract
1. Introduction
The massive and rapid development of global wearable electronics is following the trend of miniaturization, portability, and functionalization, which promotes the rapid transformation of power supply and demand mode. On the one hand, the excessive consumption of fossil fuels with the consequent of resources shortage and environment pollution have brought great challenges to global energy supply, which makes it an unprecedented urgency to explore a new way of carbon neutrality with the possibilities of developing renewable, sustainable, and green energy[
To tackle the above issues, researchers are committed to assembling flexible, uninterruptible, and wearable self-charging power systems by integrating various energy-harvesting and energy storage devices through the circuit management system, which can make environmental energy simultaneously scavenged and stored for self-sustainable power supply[

At present, a variety of combinations of energy harvesting units and energy storage units have been reported to design self-charging power systems, including solar cell-driven photo-rechargeable power cell (Fig. 2(a))[

Here, the latest development of self-charging power textiles based on the combination of fiber/fabric energy harvesting TENGs with fiber/fabric energy storing units are comprehensively summarized from the aspect of textile structure design, which includes fabricating in single fibers, interweaving with TENG fabrics, interweaving with fiber TENGs and fiber SCs, developing from fabric substrates, preparing with fabric-related membranous structures, and designing with multi-module combination. The potential challenges and brighter prospects towards the further research and practical application of self-charging power textiles are briefly discussed at the end of this review. We firmly believe that self-charging power textiles will become an important part of the future wearable energy supply.
2. Self-charging power textiles
2.1. All-in-one self-charging power fibers
1D fiber-shaped electronic devices with light-weight, flexibility, and small diameters from tens to hundreds of micrometers have attracted broad interests in wearable electronic fields[

2.2. Self-charging power fabrics interwoven with TENG fabrics
Considering the limited power output of single fiber TENGs, some research works have been carried out to improve the power output density of the energy harvesting units by preparing fabric-based TENGs through a variety of fabric interweaving techniques, such as weaving, knitting, braiding, and sewing. In such cases, self-charging power textiles with interwoven fabric TENGs and fiber LIBs or SCs are developed. For example, a self-charging power unit is realized by integration of a textile TENG cloth and a flexible LIB belt[

The contradiction between the alternating current (AC) electrical output form of TENGs and the direct current (DC) power demand severely limits their further research development and potential application[
2.3. Self-charging power fabrics interwoven with fiber TENGs and fiber SCs
It seems to be a more efficient way to integrate fiber TENGs and fiber SCs directly into a fabric system, which greatly improves the integration of self-charging power systems. In previous studies, we have reported a highly stretchable and washable all-yarn-based self-charging knitting power textile that enables both biomechanical energy harvesting and simultaneously energy storing by hybridizing TENG and SC into one fabric[

In addition to the knitting technique, weaving is also an effective method to integrate fiber TENGs and fiber SCs into the self-charging power fabric systems. For example, a self-charging power textile enabled by yarn-based TENGs as the energy-harvesting devices and yarn asymmetric SCs as the energy storing unit is reported by Pu et al.[
2.4. Self-charging power fabrics developed from fabric substrates
In order to achieve more efficient fabrication of self-charging power fabrics, common fabrics are often used as the substrates, on which a variety of conductive and active materials are applied. The simplest way of developing self-charging power fabrics with fabric substrates is to directly stack the fabric TENG with single-electrode mode and fabric SCs together. Moreover, the structure design can be further simplified by sharing electrodes. For example, Zhang et al. presented an all-fabric-based self-charging power cloth by integrating a wearable single-electrode TENG and a flexible SC with a general carbon nanotube/cotton fabric electrode[
The earlier research work of self-charging power fabrics on fabric substrates is reported in 2014[

2.5. Self-charging power textiles with fabric-related membranous configurations
Paper is often utilized as the substrate for building functionalized electronics, especially for self-charging power units[

3. Multi-module combined self-charging power textiles
In many cases, the output power from individual energy harvester cannot completely fulfill the power requirements of the wireless sensor networks, partly because the energy source may not always be stable or continuously available in reality[
Based on the hybrid energy harvesting strategies, multi-module combined self-charging power systems with complementary and synergistic energy harvesters and commensurate energy storage modules for maximized efficiency and performance are also developed. Photovoltaic solar cells can be hybridized with TENGs, which can collect solar energy and mechanical energy at the same time. For example, a textile-based self-charging power system is realized by integrating fabric TENGs and fiber-shaped dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) to scavenge the energy of human motion and solar energy, which are further stored in a lithium-ion battery for sustainable power supply application[

4. Summary and discussions
In summary, the recent process of self-charging power textiles that integrate fiber/fabric energy harvesting TENGs with fiber/fabric-shaped energy storage LIBs/SCs are comprehensively summarized, which provides a promising energy-autonomy strategy to the next-generation wearable electronics. According to the textile structure design, the TENG-based self-charging power textiles can be divided into fabrication in single fibers, interweaving with TENG fabrics, interweaving with fiber TENGs and fiber SCs, development from fabric substrates, preparation with fabric-related membranous structures, and design with multi-module combination, each of which has been introduced and discussed with representative examples. However, although significant improvements have been achieved in the research development of self-charging power textiles, some critical problems or huge challenges regarding their further study and potential application are needed to be addressed, such as:
(1) Working performance. The relatively low output power of fiber/fabric TENGs is one of the key bottlenecks for self-charging power textiles. For energy storing devices, the self-discharge behaviors of SCs and the high threshold voltage of LIBs also greatly reduce the overall energy conversion efficiency. In addition, the pulsed electrical output mode may affect ion diffusion and transport across the isolating membrane. Tremendous efforts need to be made to improve the output performance of fiber/fabric TENGs as well as their combining ability with energy storage devices. Moreover, the performance stability of self-charging power textiles in the long-term working cycles is also very important. Reasonable packaging techniques are necessary to prevent the internal electrode and triboelectric charge from being interfered with by the external environment. Some polymer materials with excellent hydrophobicity and strong electrification ability are often adopted as packaging materials.
(2) Capacities/impedances mismatch. The energy harvesting TENGs with the electrical output characteristics of high voltage and low current do not match with the stored form of electrical energy of energy storing units, which is low voltage and high current. Many efforts should be done in order to improve energy conversion efficiency.
(3) Power management systems/circuits. The power management circuits including hard modules are hard to integrate into cloth, which requires certain flexibility and stretchability. In addition, although various kinds of power management circuits, including full-wave rectification[
(4) Self-charging mechanism. The working principles of energy harvesting TENGs and energy storing devices have been widely studied and reported, which has basically reached a consensus. However, the potential working mechanisms of TENG-based self-charging power textiles are still not fully understood, which makes it difficult to explore new or higher performance self-charging devices. In most cases, self-charging mainly goes through three processes. Firstly, the mechanical energy is harvested and simultaneously converted into electric energy through the coupling effect of contact electrification and electrostatic induction. Secondly, the triboelectric signals with the characteristics of pulse, high voltage, low current, and alternating current (AC) require energy management circuits to transform into the electrical signals with stable, low voltage, steady current, and direct current (DC) mode. Finally, the stable DC output is stored in SCs or LIBs to power external electronic devices. More detailed explanations of the self-charging mechanism need the help of more advanced equipment and technology.
(5) Performance evaluation criteria. At present, the performance metrics of electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices have been widely reported, which mainly include energy density and power density[
(6) Integration into one cloth system. For terminal wearable use, the components of self-charging power textiles should be highly integrated into one clothing system, and should have certain shape adaptability to human daily motions. This is not only related to the textile-related design of each unit, but also the connection and packaging of the circuit between the constituent units.
(7) Wearability and comfortability. The wearability and comfortability of self-charging power textiles are also particularly important since their service occasion is always for wearable usage. In general, the addition of functional attributes will lose part of the comfort, due to excessive chemical treatments and the occurrence of skin sensitive materials. In addition, external loads are required to stimulate the electricity generation of fiber/fabric TENGs, which will also cause discomfort to the human body. Therefore, more attention should be paid to wearability and comfortability on the basis of satisfying good working performance.
(8) Cost-effectiveness analysis. Most of the reported self-charging power textiles are still proof-of-concept prototypes, which are fabricated with expensive raw materials and complicated preparation processes. It is the primary concern and the only way to realize the commercial application of self-charging power textiles by reducing the cost of raw materials, simplifying the preparation process, and improving manufacturing efficiency.
As a new research direction with great application prospects, self-charging power textiles provide a unique solution for future energy autonomy energy supply and distributed self-powered sensing. Although it is full of difficulties and challenges in the road of practical application, we believe that the TENG-based self-charging power textiles will be extensively applied in our daily life in the near future owing to the unremitting efforts by a large number of researchers around the world, especially for wearable electronic devices and self-powered systems.
