Triboelectric generation device

Abstract

The present disclosure enables materials of a triboelectric charging member to exhibit a characteristic of increased surface charge density, thereby improving output of a triboelectric generating device. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a triboelectric generating device showing improved output without increasing a size of the triboelectric generating device or without increasing amounts of materials required for the triboelectric generating device. An embodiment of a triboelectric generating device provided according to a first aspect of the present disclosure includes a first electrode; a first charging layer formed on the first electrode; and a second electrode disposed on the first charging layer, wherein the first charging layer and the second electrode are arranged such that an interface between the first charging layer and the second electrode forms a frictional interface, and the first charging layer includes a ferroelectric polymer matrix and ferroelectric inorganic particles dispersed in the ferroelectric polymer matrix.
