Triboelectric Nanogenerator (TENG)
Scientists from the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences, Bengaluru, an autonomous institute under the Department of Science & Technology, Government of India, have fabricated a simple, cost-effective, bio-compatible, transparent nanogenerator that can generate electricity from vibrations all around.
- The team designed a transparent triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) using thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) either in the form of electrospun nanofibers or as a flat film using the simpler Doctor’s blade technique, along with Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as tribo layers.
- The TENG makes use of mechanical energy in the form of vibrations present everywhere in different forms to generate electricity. ....
