Improved osmotic energy conversion in heterogeneous membrane boosted by three-dimensional hydrogel interface

Heterogeneous membranes show great promise in harvesting the osmotic energy, but the performance is limited by the low interfacial transport efficiency. Here, the authors report use of a three-dimensional polyelectrolyte gel interface to achieve high-performance osmotic energy conversion.
