Abstract

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have emerged as promising technology for harvesting mechanical energy from diverse sources, including human motion, vibrations, and environmental forces. Layered or two-dimensional materials, such as MXenes, graphene, carbon nanotubes, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), have gained significant attention for their ability to enhance TENG performance through tailored electronic properties, surface functionalization, and structural modifications. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in TENGs utilizing layered materials, discussing their material design, triboelectric behavior, and integration strategies. Theoretical models explaining charge transfer mechanisms, charge trapping effects, and energy conversion efficiency are critically analyzed. Additionally, challenges related to material degradation, wear, environmental stability, and scalability are addressed, along with potential solutions, such as self-healing tribolayers and advanced energy management circuits. By bridging material science and triboelectric nanogenerator technology, this review highlights future directions for the development of high-performance, durable, and sustainable energy harvesting systems.

摩擦电纳米发电机用二维层状材料

摩擦电纳米发电机（TENGs）已经成为一种很有前途的技术，可以从各种来源收集机械能，包括人体运动、振动和环境力量。层状或二维材料，如MXenes、石墨烯、碳纳米管、过渡金属二硫族化合物（TMDs）、金属有机框架（mof）和共价有机框架（COFs），因其通过定制电子特性、表面功能化和结构修饰来增强TENG性能的能力而受到广泛关注。本文综述了利用层状材料制备纳米材料的最新进展，讨论了纳米材料的材料设计、摩擦电性能和集成策略。理论模型解释电荷转移机制，电荷捕获效应，和能量转换效率进行了严格的分析。此外，还解决了与材料降解、磨损、环境稳定性和可扩展性相关的挑战，以及潜在的解决方案，如自修复摩擦层和先进的能量管理电路。通过材料科学和摩擦电纳米发电机技术的结合，本文强调了高性能、耐用和可持续的能量收集系统的未来发展方向。

期刊介绍： Progress in Materials Science is a journal that publishes authoritative and critical reviews of recent advances in the science of materials. The focus of the journal is on the fundamental aspects of materials science, particularly those concerning microstructure and nanostructure and their relationship to properties. Emphasis is also placed on the thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, and modeling of processes within materials, as well as the understanding of material properties in engineering and other applications. The journal welcomes reviews from authors who are active leaders in the field of materials science and have a strong scientific track record. Materials of interest include metallic, ceramic, polymeric, biological, medical, and composite materials in all forms. Manuscripts submitted to Progress in Materials Science are generally longer than those found in other research journals. While the focus is on invited reviews, interested authors may submit a proposal for consideration. Non-invited manuscripts are required to be preceded by the submission of a proposal. Authors publishing in Progress in Materials Science have the option to publish their research via subscription or open access. Open access publication requires the author or research funder to meet a publication fee (APC). Abstracting and indexing services for Progress in Materials Science include Current Contents, Science Citation Index Expanded, Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, INSPEC, and Scopus.
