Regulating Thermogalvanic Effect and Mechanical Robustness via Redox Ions for Flexible Quasi-Solid-State Thermocells

Peng Peng et al.

Summary: This study proposed a flexible quasi-solid-state TEC based on a rational design of a hydrogel electrolyte, in which the thermogalvanic effect and mechanical robustness are simultaneously regulated via multivalent ions.

Multidimensional Force Sensors Based on Triboelectric Nanogenerators for Electronic Skin

Zhenyi Wang et al.

Summary: By using a single-electrode-mode triboelectric nanogenerator (S-TENG), a fully elastic E-skin capable of sensing both normal pressure and shear force simultaneously has been developed. The pressure sensor shows high linearity and sensitivity in the low-pressure region, while the multidimensional force sensor utilizes two S-TENGs to detect normal pressure and shear force separately. When mounted on a robotic manipulator, the sensor can recognize changes in grabbing state, suggesting potential applications in robotics, human-robot interactions, environmental awareness, and object recognition.
