Influence of Carbon Quantum Dots on the Electrical Performance of Triboelectric Generators
Proceedings, 2018 In this work we investigate the triboelectric properties of Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs) films for potential application in triboelectric generators. CQDs were deposited on silicon wafers, using spin on techniques.

Intermittent origin of the large violations of the fluctuation dissipation relations in an aging polymer glass [PDF]
, 2003 The fluctuation-dissipation relation (FDR) is measured on the dielectric properties of a polymer glass (polycarbonate)in the range $20mHz - 100Hz$. It is found that after a quench below the glass transition temperature the fluctuation dissipation theorem

Force Impact Effect in Contact-Mode Triboelectric Energy Harvesters: Characterization and Modeling [PDF]
, 2016 In this paper we investigate the effect of the contact force on the voltage generated by Contact-Mode Triboelectric Energy Harvesting Devices (CM-TEHD). The electrical energy harvested from mechanical shocks increases with the contact force.

Quantifying the triboelectric series [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 AbstractTriboelectrification is a well-known phenomenon that commonly occurs in nature and in our lives at any time and any place. Although each and every material exhibits triboelectrification, its quantification has not been standardized. A triboelectric series has been qualitatively ranked with regards to triboelectric polarization.

A review of mechanoluminescence in inorganic solids : compounds, mechanisms, models and applications [PDF]
, 2018 Mechanoluminescence (ML) is the non-thermal emission of light as a response to mechanical stimuli on a solid material. While this phenomenon has been observed for a long time when breaking certain materials, it is now being extensively explored ...
