Keywords:
Aluminum, contact separation mode, PTFE, triboelectric nanogeneratorAbstract
Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is an energy technology that can convert mechanical energy into electricity based on the conjunction of triboelectric friction and electrostatic induction. TENG possesses a high potential as an alternative artificial energy source to develop the integrated power source device, active sensor, or massive scale power source. In this research, the vertical contact triboelectric nanogenerators using commercial grade Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and Aluminum were successfully fabricated. It performs the output voltage and current of 145 V and 8.5 µA, respectively. Moreover, the maximum power of 510 µW was observed at the external contact force of 11 N.
