Toward the blue energy dream by triboelectric nanogenerator networks

Abstract Widely distributed across the globe, water wave energy is one of the most promising renewable energy sources, while little has been exploited due to various limitations of current technologies mainly relying on electromagnetic generator (EMG), especially its operation in irregular environment and low frequency (
