Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) dominate the market of rechargeable power sources. To meet the increasing market demands, technology updates focus on advanced battery materials, especially cathodes, the most important component in LIBs. In this review,...
Metal–support interaction (MSI) is considered a key effect of electronic and geometric structures of catalysts on tuning catalytic performance. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a crucial process during energy conversion and storage. Howev...
Facing the energy consumption of a huge number of distributed wireless Internet of Things (IoT) sensor nodes, scavenging energy from the ambient environment to power these devices is considered to be a promising method. Moreover, abundant energy sour...
Addressing the increasing development of IoT networks and the associated energy requirements, rotating triboelectric nanogenerators (R-TENGs) are proving to be strong candidates in the field of energy harvesting, as well as to that of self-powered de...
Collecting ambient energy to power various wearable electronics is considered a prospective approach to addressing their energy consumption. Mechanical and thermal energies are abundantly available in the environment and can be efficiently converted...
Contact electrification exists everywhere and between every phase of matter. However, its mechanism still remains to be studied. The recent triboelectric nanogenerator serves as a probe and provides some new clues about the mechanism present in solid...
Anthropogenetic environmental deterioration and climate change caused by energy production and consumption pose a significant threat to the future of humanity. Renewable, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective energy sources are becoming increa...
This paper reviews and summarizes recent progress in blue energy harvesting based on a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). This review covers TENG-based blue energy harvesters (BEHs) with different inertial units in spherical structures, derivative s...
As wearable devices continue to be updated and iterated, there is an increasing demand for energy supplies that are small, portable and capable of working continuously for extended periods of time. Here, a hybrid triboelectric-electromagnetic nanogen...
With the global energy shortages, sustainable energy scavenging from the natural environment is desperately needed. Unlike solar cell or wind power, which depends heavily on weather conditions, triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) has received extensiv...
