DOI: 10.1016/j.nanoen.2019.103864
Abstract: Abstract Chemical modification on contact pair materials is an important means to enhance the output of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) as the electrification performance of contact materials depends critically on their molecular structures. However, limited understanding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-62560-w
Abstract: Structured porous materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent-organic frameworks (COFs), are being intensely developed because they can separate small molecules via precisely constructed and uniformly sized pores, despite challenges that hinder practical use. Polymers… read more here.
