Abstract
In today's life, people are aware of the fact that global warming and energy crisis are the major issues that are degrading the environment and reducing the life span of everyone due to the careless usage of the resources. We tend to spend more time to waste the reliable energy rather than utilizing them efficiently. So we hereby propose a triboelectric nanogenerator based model that can scavenge this energy from various forms mainly physical motion which would further be converted to electrical energy.Flappy Tappy (FT-TENG) based device converts energy generated from physical motion to electrical energy by the coupled effect of triboelectric and electrostatic induction where it acts as a battery-free sensor. This energy can further be utilized for self-powered applications. To analyze the energy harvesting performances of the FT-TENG, various tests have been demonstrated.The maximum output voltage and the short circuit current obtained were ~30V and ~1.5µA respectively. Furthermore, this device exhibits long term stability, durability and it's reliable. This device has a capacity to light up 100 LEDs. © 2020 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
