An Investigation of Contact Electrification and Triboelectric Charging in Insulating Materials
… Due to the often deleterious effects of triboelectricity, establishing a fundamental understanding is desired. In this research, we investigated two aspects of triboelectric charging of insulating materials: 1) the influence of material strain, and 2) the influence of humidity. Our …

Use of a triboelectric generator for a tunable wideband energy harvester and a threshold shock sensor
<p>The prevalence of triboelectricity as a transduction mechanism has increased rapidly in recent years. We will discuss two uses for triboelectric generators. One design is a tunable wideband energy harvester. An axial force and amplitude limiter work together to create an energy harvester that …
