| Abstract | ||||
| Triboelectric Nanogenerators are emerging technology with huge potential in a variety of fields, from green energy to self-powered sensors. They are the products of triboelectrification which causes a generation of electrostatic charges on any two surfaces that come into contact with one another. This study aims at investigating the behavior of the voltage output of many different triboelectric nanogenerators with load, in both contact and separation as well as sliding. It was found that, when the applied load on a TENG increases, the generated voltage increases linearly. The generated voltage at sliding was higher than that generated in contact and separation. Besides, rough contact surfaces generated relatively higher voltage especially at contact and separation due to the increase of the contact area subjected to friction. | ||||
