Cylindrical Rotating Triboelectric Nanogenerator
ACS Nano, 2013We demonstrate a cylindrical rotating triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) based on sliding electrification for harvesting mechanical energy from rotational motion. The rotating TENG is based on a core-shell structure that is made of distinctly different triboelectric materials with alternative strip structures on the surface.

On the mechanism and optimization of triboelectric nanogenerators
Nanotechnology, 2015The mechanism for a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) with contacting materials being different conductors is essentially the same as that of a Kelvin probe. The difference between the two is that the former is designed for harvesting mechanical energy while the latter is used for measuring contact potential differences.

Triboelectric filtering for air purification
Nanotechnology, 2019Abstract Air pollution becomes more and more serious with the rapid development of the society, and the haze caused by particulate matters (PMs) has become a global problem. Thus seeking an effective technology for removing the airborne PMs or other pollutants is much desirable for alleviating the air pollution.

Constructing triboelectric textiles with weaving
Proceedings of the 2017 ACM International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2017Contact-electrification or Triboelectric energy harvesting is an emerging area in the research of renewable energy sources. This paper illustrates an initial exploration of translating the existing models of triboelectric generators into woven textile structures.

What Puts the “Tribo” in Triboelectricity?
Nano LettersAn enduring question in science has been why sliding plays a major role in the triboelectric generation of static electricity-the "tribo" in triboelectricity. We provide here a general explanation which is rooted in established science. When sliding is taking place, there is symmetry breaking due to elastic shear, so the front of the sliding body ...

Dielectric materials for triboelectric and piezo/triboelectric hybrid generators
Matériaux diélectriques pour générateurs triboélectriques et hybrides piézo-triboélectriques Les crises énergétiques et environnementales nous obligent à chercher les sources d’énergies renouvelables, qui contribuent à la fois à réduire l’effet de serre et la consommation des sources traditionnelles d’énergie fossile.openaire +1 more source
