Abstract
Electrical wave mechanics: A newly designed triboelectric nanogenerator is based on the contact electrification between a patterned polydimethylsiloxane pyramid array and water. Cost-effective and simple, the prototype triboelectric nanogenerator shows the potential to harvest energy from liquid waves and serve as chemical and temperature sensors.
