Energy Conversion at the Cuticle of Living Plants
Abstract
Progress towards green and autonomous energy sources includes harnessing living systems and biological tissue. It is recently discovered that the cuticle‐cellular tissue bilayer in higher plant leaves functions as an integrated triboelectric generator conductor couple capable of converting mechanical stimuli into electricity. Here, it is investigated for the first time, in detail how charge generation at the living plant leaf occurs, and it is...
