The integration of organic molecules into monolayers on triboelectric layers and electrodes has significantly improved the performance nanogenerators (TENGs) in recent years. By modifying surfaces at molecular level, one can enhance durability, power density, cost‐efficiency, leading to flexible, lightweight, more efficient devices. A simple chemistry monolayer formation allows a precise control over orientation, coverage, consistency, functionality. These boost surface charge density output voltage while influencing polarization dipole interactions. This review focuses advances chemical modification for controlling altering dipoles, emphasizing significance monolayers. new concept Schottky‐based TENGs is also introduced that explores chemically modified sliding surfaces. Furthermore, importance flexoelectricity its contribution triboelectricity discussed. addressing current challenges outlining future directions, this underscores crucial role advancing TENGs.
