| Summary: | TriboelectricNanogenerators (TENGs) is a new era energy source to power portable small electronic devices. This paper presents the fabrication of vertical contact separation mode TENGs. Three different TENGs device prototypes are fabricated: (1) Kapton-Aluminium; (2) Teflon-Aluminium and (3) Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV)-Aluminium. To optimize the performance of TENGs the effect of various parameters such as thickness of dielectric layer, contact time between two layers and contact separation movement of layers have been observed. Experimental result demonstrates that the output voltage increases initially and then decreases with the increase in thickness of dielectric layer. It is also reported that output voltage of TENGs decreases and increases with the increase in contact time and contact separation movement respectively. In this work, an output voltage obtained from TENGs is suitable to drive applications based on small power electronics. |
