Abstract
Nowadays, great effort has been devoted to designing biomass-derived nanoscale carbon fibers with controllable fibrous morphology, high conductivity, big specific surface area and multifunctional characteristics. Herein, a green and renewable strategy is performed to prepare the biomass-based nanoscale carbon fibers for fire warning sensor, supercapacitor and moist-electric generator. This preparation strategy thoroughly gets over the dependence of petroleum-based polymeride, and effectually improves the energy storage capacity, sensing sensitivity, humidity power generation efficiency of the obtaining biomass-based carbon nanofibers. Without the introduction of any active components or pseudocapacitive materials, the specific capacitance and energy density for biomass-based nanoscale carbon fibers achieve 143.58 F/g and 19.9 Wh/kg, severally. The biomass-based fire sensor displays excellent fire resistance, stability, and flame sensitivity with a response time of 2 s. Furthermore, the biomass-based moist-electric generator shows high power generation efficiency. The output voltage and current of five series connected and parallel-connected biomass-based moist-electric generators reaches 4.30 V and 43 μA, respectively. Notably, as the number of biomass-based moist-electric generators in series or parallel increases, the overall output voltage and current of the device system have a linear relationship. This work proposes a self-powered fire prediction system based on nanoscale carbon fibers that integrates sensing, power generation, and energy storage functions.

Abstract
Moisture-enabled electricity (ME) is a method of converting the potential energy of water in the external environment into electrical energy through the interaction of functional materials with water molecules and can be directly applied to energy harvesting and signal expression. However, ME can be unreliable in numerous applications due to its sluggish response to moisture, thus sacrificing the value of fast energy harvesting and highly accurate information representation. Here, by constructing a moisture-electric-moisture-sensitive (ME-MS) heterostructure, we develop an efficient ME generator with ultra-fast electric response to moisture achieved by triggering Grotthuss protons hopping in the sensitized ZnO, which modulates the heterostructure built-in interfacial potential, enables quick response (0.435 s), an unprecedented ultra-fast response rate of 972.4 mV s-1, and a durable electrical signal output for 8 h without any attenuation. Our research provides an efficient way to generate electricity and important insight for a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of moisture-generated carrier migration in ME generator, which has a more comprehensive working scene and can serve as a typical model for human health monitoring and smart medical electronics design.
