This study reports the use of near-field electrospinning to fabricate polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) piezo- electric nanofibers mixed with multiwalled-carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). This study also investigates the mechanical strength and piezoelectric characteristics of a single PVDF/MWCNT nanofiber. The morphol- ogy and polarization intensity of piezoelectric fiber can be controlled by adjusting the traveling velocity of the X–Y stage, the DC voltage, and the gap between the needle and collection plate. The optimal parameters of the PVDF solution, such as the PVDF powder weight percentage and MWCNT content, were also determined. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis shows a high diffraction peak at 2
