A 3D soft lithography casting process with sugar templates with varying grain sizes for different pore sizes is utilized to fabricate a triboelectric sponge (TES) with superhydrophobicity and elasticity, which are essential factors for immunity to the effects of humidity and to impart good mechanical stability. The unique micro–nano structure in the TES enhances the electrical output performance due to an increased effective contact area.
