Mosquito zappers get a boost from static-electricity harvester redesign

Wednesday, May 31, 2023 - 08:22 in Biology & Nature

Controlling mosquito populations, especially in isolated or remote areas, is a global public-health priority. In a new study, a team of Chinese researchers advanced this agenda with a more efficient design of safe, self-powered triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) to zap mosquitos and mitigate the mosquito-borne diseases.
