In a study recently published in the journal Nano Energy, a team of researchers from the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) and IMDEA Materials, in collaboration with the National Geographic Institute (IGN) and the Center for Studies and Experimentation of Public Works (CEDEX), have designed and tested a novel seismic sensor based on the triboelectric effect. The results show that, within a seismic network, this sensor can detect earthquakes thousands of kilometers from their epicenter with high sensitivity and accuracy.
