A Triboelectric Nanogenerator Based on PDMS and Parafilm For Biomechanical Energy Harvesting

In this report, a triboelectric nanogenerator is fabricated using parafilm, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films for the first time. The fabricated TENG has been used for low-frequency mechanical energy harvesting to drive wearable and low-power electronic gadgets. The parafilm and PDMS layers act as triboelectric layers, and packaging aluminium foil acts as conducting electrodes. A flexible TENG wit...
