DESCRIPTION
The popularity of wearable electronics has induced demand for their parts, including power sources such as triboelectric nanogenerators, or TENGs. Penn State researchers combined a porous 2D material known as MXene and laser-induced graphene foam nanocomposite to form a material system that enables a TENG to be stretchy and perform on dynamic surfaces.
