In article number 1803581 by Sang‐Jae Kim an co‐workers, the design of a metal‐organic framework (MOF) subfamily zinc imidazole framework (ZIF‐8) based TENG for a self‐powered UV currency counterfeit system and tetracycline sensing is described. The ZIF‐8 has a high surface area, porosity and is chemically and thermally stable. The MOF provides flexibility regarding the size and functionality. The ZIF‐8 exhibits positive surface potential. The device output is 164 V and 7 μA with ZIF‐8 as positive and Kapton as a negative triboelectric layer. The device is used to drive a commercial temperature sensor, a UV currency counterfeit system and for tetracycline sensing.
