Owing to the intensive exploration of energy conversion strategies,expanded energy sources are successfully converted into electric energy,including mechanical energy from human motion, kinetic energy of fallingraindrops, and thermal energy in the ambient. Among these energyconversion processes, charge transfer at different interfaces, such assolid–solid, solid–liquid, liquid–liquid, and gas-contained interfaces,dominates the power-generating efficiency. In this review, the mechanismsand applications of interfacial energy generators (IEGs) with differentinterface types are systematically summarized. Challenges and prospects arealso highlighted. Due to the abundant interfacial interactions in nature, thedevelopment of IEGs offers a promising avenue of inexhaustible andenvironmental-friendly power generation to solve the energy crisis. 收起
