Different from the case of reference state, the potential difference between two electrodes increases with increasing h. That is because the potential difference arising from the vertical separation between two tribosurfaces is also included. The real VOC still has a maximum peak at the half-cycle point, but the peak becomes wider when h increases. The real QSC has the same trend as the QSC under the reference state, which is just a vertical translation of that under the reference state. Specifically, the real QSC has the equal maximum at α = θ0 for any h. Figure S1 (a) Short-circuit charge, (b) open-circuit voltage as functions of rotation angle for the dielectric RD-TENG with N = 4 at various tribo-surface spacings h in the real cases. The basic properties of metal RD-TENG at various tribo-surface spacings were also calculated under the charge reference state, as shown in Fig. S2. The curve shapes of QSC, C and VOC are the same as the case of dielectric RD-TENG, and the variable trends of QSC, C and VOC with the change of h are similar.

Figure S2 (a) Short-circuit charge, (b) capacitance, and (c) open-circuit voltage as functions of rotation angle for the metal RD-TENG at various tribo-surface spacings h under the charge reference state. To better demonstrate the dependence of basic properties on h, we derived the analytic equations for QSC, C, and VOC for the ideal case (neglecting the edge effect). The SC transferred charges (QSC) was obtained by deducting Qinitial from total transferred charges under SC (Qnet,SC) at a certain angle α. For the non-contact mode, the Qinitial was assigned to the total amount of charges transferred at α = 0 under SC condition. At the initial state, the lower surface of dielectric 1 has the charge density of +σ, and the upper surface of dielectric 2 has the density of –σ. The Qinitial equals the short-circuit charge of a contact-separation TENG with a separation distance of h, which is given by Qinitial N 0 h(r2 2 r12 ) d d 2 1 2 h r1 r2 (S1) When the dielectric 1 layer rotates for an angle α, the QSC was derived from the charge distribution under SC condition for different α ranges. (1) When 0 ≤ α≤ θ0 Under SC condition, we assume the charge densities on the upper surface of metal 2 for regions I and II (Fig. S3) are respectively σ2,I and σ2,II. Since the electric field inside metal is always 0, σ2,I satisfies 2,I (S2) From the charge conservation and zero electric field inside metal 2, we obtain 2,II h d1 r1 d2 r2 (S3) h Therefore, the total charges Qnet,SC on metal 2 can be given by d d N (r2 2 r12 ) 1 2 0 h N (r2 r1 ) r1 r2 2,I 2,II ( 0 ) 2 d d 2 1 2 h r1 r2 2 Qnet,SC 2 | www.editorialmanager.com/nare/default.asp (S4) Nano Res.

(2) When θ0 ≤ α ≤ 2θ0 The center angles of regions I and II for metal 2 are respectively α − θ0 and 2θ0 – α (Fig. S4). Similar to above, the charge densities σ2,I and σ2,II satisfy 1,I d1 r1 h d2 r2 , h 2,II (S6) Therefore, the total charges Qnet,SC on metal A is given by Qnet,SC d1 d2 2 2 N ( r r ) (2 ) h 2 1 0 0 N (r2 2 r12 ) r1 r2 1,I ( 0 ) 2,II (2 0 ) 2 d1 d2 2 h r1 r2 (S7) Then QSC Qnet,SC Qinitial d d N (2 0 ) 1 2 (r2 2 r12 ) r2 r1 d1 d2 2 h r1 r2 (S8) Figure S4 Schematic charge distribution model for the dielectric RD-TENG at θ0 ≤ α≤ 2θ0. www.theNanoResearch.com∣www.Springer.com/journal/12274 | Nano Research Nano Res. As long as two dielectrics are not close to fully separated, the capacitor at the matched region (region II in Fig. S3 and region I in Fig. S4) is the dominate part of the capacitance. The total C can be represented by the local capacitance at region II or I. Of course, this is the ideal case neglecting the edge effect. The C can be given by C N 0 0 (r2 2 r12 ) d d 2 1 2 h r1 r2 (S9) Then the open-circuit voltage can be obtained by VOC S2 d1 d2 , 0 ( 0 ) r1 r2 (2 0 ) d1 d2 , ( ) r2 0 r1 0 0 ≤ 0 (S10) 0 ≤ 2 0 Effect of grating number for the metal RD-TENG For the metal RD-TENG in contact-mode, the QSC, C, and VOC as functions of α at various N are shown in Fig. S5. It can be found that under the ideal condition, the influences of N on the QSC, C, and VOC are similar to the dielectric RD-TENG. The difference is that the metal RD-TENG has a lower VOC, a higher C, and a lower QSC.

Table S2 shows the values of coefficients in the interpolation equations captured by the interpolation calculations based on the FEM results. Figure S6 shows the comparison of 1/C and VOC obtained through the FEM calculation and semianalytical interpolation. It can be seen the interpolation results are accurate and have little error. | www.editorialmanager.com/nare/default.asp Nano Res.
