Abstract

In this paper, we present and manufacture a millimeter-scale three-layer triboelectric energy generator operating in vertical separation-contact mode, which could double the output power compared with that of two-layer generator with same separation distance. Then, we develop an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) of ultra-low power (ULP) full bridge rectifier for triboelectric energy harvesting. The rectifier converts AC electricity into DC energy, and temporarily stores the energy in a μF-level capacitor. The experimental results demonstrate that the triboelectric energy is successfully harvested by the prototype ASIC with high efficiency and tiny chip area.
