Abstract

Hybrid Energy Harvesting In article number 2404637, Po-Yu Chen, Zong-Hong Lin, and co-workers seamlessly integrated a sandfish scale-inspired self-healing fluorinated copolymer-based triboelectric layer on top of a polysilicon solar cell to concurrently harvest both solar energy and kinetic energy associated with wind-driven sand particles via a triboelectric nanogenerator. The biomimetic triboelectric layer leverages ultra-low sand adhesion and high abrasion-resistant characteristics inherent in the sandfish scales' distinct saw-tooth morphology.
