Abstract
A dielectric elastomer power generation system A1 includes a dielectric elastomer power generation elementhaving a dielectric elastomer layerand a pair of electrode layerssandwiching the dielectric elastomer layerThe dielectric elastomer power generation system A1 further includes a piezoelectric elementand a multi-stage voltage multiplier/rectifier circuitthat boosts and rectifies the voltage generated by the piezoelectric elementand applies the resulting voltage as an initial voltage to the dielectric elastomer power generation elementThis configuration enables the system to be constructed at a lower cost and increase the amount of power generation.
