Air‑Breakdown Triboelectric Nanogenerator Inspired by Transistor Architecture for Low‑Force Human–Machine Interfaces (IMAGE)
Caption
- An air-breakdown triboelectric nanogenerator (AB-TENG) is proposed with a transistor-inspired architecture to achieve high electrical output from the electrostatic discharge of skin electrons at a low contact force.
- The working contact force of AB-TENG is compatible with the day-to-day human–machine interface systems, enabling the fabrication of next-generation thin electronics.
- Demonstration of AB-TENG-based self-powered infrared remote control and an ultrathin self-powered keyboard with a thickness of 600 µm.
