With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the ongoing Fourth Industrial
Revolution, the effective conversion of wasted ambient mechanical energy from the …

In the past century, ferroelectrics are well known in electroceramics and microelectronics for
their unique ferroelectric, piezoelectric, pyroelectric, and photovoltaic effects. Nowadays, the …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a problematic greenhouse gas, although its conversion to
alternative fuels represents a promising approach to limit its long-term effects. Here …

In order for survival, we humans must breathe. The process of breathing involves not only
the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide but also the exhalation of chemical compounds …

Abstract Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) have outstanding properties, including
straightforward fabrication and connection of high-density arrays of aligned nanostructures …

Triboelectric Nanogenerators (TENGs) are a highly efficient approach for mechanical-to-
electrical energy conversion based on the coupling effects of contact electrification and …

Here, we design a rotational structure on a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) using a
robust hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets/polyvinyl chloride (hBN nanosheets/PVC) …

Converting the pervasive low-grade environmental waste heat of approximately 200 EJ
globally per year (equivalent to 27 Gt of CO2 emission) into electricity promises energy …

Pyroelectric energy harvesting has received increasing attention due to its ability to convert
low-grade waste heat into electricity. However, the low output energy density driven by low …

The focus on sustainable energy sources is intensifying as they present a viable alternative
to conventional fossil fuels. The emergence of clean and renewable hydrogen fuel marks a …
