Theoretical models have been proposed to bring an in-depth understanding of the working mechanisms of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), aiming to enhance their output performance. This work proposes an enhanced distance-dependent electric field (EDDEF) model to predict triboelectric characterist...
