Rationally patterned electrode of direct-current triboelectric nanogenerators for ultrahigh effective surface charge density

Low charge density is the bottleneck for the applications of triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). Here, the authors demonstrate a microstructure-designed direct-current TENG with rationally patterned electrode structure to enhance its effective charge density to a new milestone.
