This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract: Long-term observation of the triboelectric effect has not only proved the feasibility of many novel and useful tribo-devices (e.g., triboelectric nanogenerators), but also constantly motivated the exploration of its mysterious nature. In the pursuit of a comprehensive understanding of how the triboelectric process works, a more accurate description of the triboelectric effect and its related parameters and factors is urgently required. This review critically goes through the fundamental theories and basic principles governing the triboelectric process. By investigating the difference between each charging media, the electron, ion, and material transfer is discussed and the theoretical deduction in the past decades is provided. With the information from the triboelectric series, interesting phenomena including cyclic triboelectric sequence and asymmetric triboelectrification are precisely analyzed. Then, the interaction between the tribo-system and its operational environment is analyzed, and a fundamental description of its effects on the triboelectric process and results is summarized. In brief, this review is expected to provide a strong understanding of the triboelectric effect in a more rigorous mathematical and physical sense. Keywords: triboelectric effect; triboelectrification; triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs); interface 1 Introduction The triboelectric effect was the earliest focus in the tribology study. For over 2000 years, its generality and interesting phenomena have attracted significant research interests. In summary, the triboelectric effect is interesting but complex mainly due to the following reasons: (1) Even for a highly charged surface (namely 1 mC·m−2), the charge density can only achieve 1 electron unit per 􏴑105 surface atoms [1]. (2) Basic questions including which surface will be charged positively and which will have negative charges when two surfaces are brought into contact are still difficult to answer with certainty, and exceptions (i.e., cyclic triboelectric series) from different theories seem exclusive to each other [2]. (3) Multiple factors can work on the same triboelectric process, which adds to the complete analyses by decoupling each dominant parameter for modeling the triboelectric effect. Considering these esoteric aspects in the triboelectric effect, many experiments have been conducted. Though all these results are appreciable, their significance suffers greatly, owing to the lack of more solid theoretical deductions to interpret their phenomena in the triboelectric process [3]. Ironically, with so many tasks to solve and questions to answer, triboelectric devices and applications [4–8] see a far-reaching success in recent years. For example, some previous studies (e.g., into volcanic dusts) have revealed a close relation between environmental phenomena and triboelectric effect [9, 10]; manufac- turing and processing also face the influence of triboelectrication [11]. Indeed, these achievements eagerly need more understanding in theories and * Corresponding author: Zhinan ZHANG, E-mail: zhinanz@sjtu.edu.cn
