Among various forms of energy, ocean blue energy has become one of the most promising sources due to its vast coverage and large total amount. However, the lack of economically efficient harvesting technologies has long restricted the extraction and development of blue energy. The emerging triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) excels at collecting mechanical energy from the … Read more
Nanogenerators are a significant innovative breakthrough in the way and technology of energy acquisition, opening up a new research field of nano energy and self-driven sensors. The advent of nanogenerators completely breaks the limits of human understanding of the size of “generators,” making the miniaturization of energy systems possible, representing a new understanding and exploration … Read more
