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.
