Triboelectric nanogenerators as a new energy technology: From fundamentals, devices, to applications 9 [37]. The structure provides a novel and simple method to stack multiple TENGs without either expanding the area or considerably complicating the fabrication process. As a con- sequence, we were able to achieve multi-folds enhancement of the output power while keeping the TENG's area constant. A TENG with a size of 3.8 cm  3.8 cm  0.95 cm contains 5 active layers of units that are parallel connected. The instantaneous short-circuit current and the open-circuit voltage could reach 0.66 mA and 215 V, corresponding to an instantaneous power density of 9.76 mW/cm2 and 10.24 mW/cm3 at device level. Micro-structure When we first proposed the basic sliding mode, a concept of linear gratings was demonstrated to enhance the current amplitude, current frequency, and conversion efficiency [17]. Identical linear grating with uniform period is fabri- cated on both sliding surfaces. Every row of the grating units can be considered as a reduced-sized TENG; and it is in parallel connection with all other rows. In contrast to a non- grating TENG that needs to be fully displaced in order to complete pumping of the induced charges for one time, the grating TENG only requires a displacement of a unit length to completely transport the induced charges. Therefore, for a one-way sliding process across the entire length of the TENG, the induced charges can be pumped for (2N  1) times in total, where N is the number of grating units. The following equation represents the total induced charges Q in a single sliding across the entire length of the TENG.

As shown in Fig. 9a–c, the amplitude of short-circuit current produced by TENGs having 6, 8 and 10 grating units increases in a linear manner, as indicated in Eq. (4). Therefore, high-density and fine-sized periodic pattern on the sliding surface is the key to substantially promote the output power of the TENG. Following the above grating concept, we developed two types of high-performance TENGs that have fine-sized periodic patterns of different shapes. One of them is based linear micro-gratings [19]. The device is composed of PTFE thin films with a pair of metal gratings on opposite sides. As schemed in Fig. 10a, the grating is a collection of metal Please cite this article as: G.
