Topological‐Insulator Nanocomposite and Graphite‐Like Tribo‐Charge‐Accumulating Fabric Enabling High‐performance Non‐Contact Stretchable and Textile‐Based Triboelectric Nanogenerators with Robust Charge Retention (Adv. Energy Mater. 37/2024)

Layered Oxide-Based Cathodes In article number 2402169, San-Yuan Chen, Chih-Yen Chen, Ying-Chih Lai, and co-workers prepared a stretchable non-contact energy-harvesting triboelectric textile using a topological-insulator nanocomposite coating and a graphite-like fabric. It was possible to scavenge biomechanical energy in a contactless manner, whilst also serving as a touchless self-powered interface. This sophisticated design enables superior performance and excellent stretchability with remarkable charge retention, making it attractive for wearable energy and sensing.
