Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Disclosed herein are a stretchable triboelectric generator, a stretchable electricity storage device and a wearable electronic device. The stretchable triboelectric generator comprises a first stretchable triboelectric generation part comprising a first fabric layer and a first friction layer on the first fabric layer and a second stretchable triboelectric generation part comprising a second fabric layer and a second friction layer on the second fabric layer. The stretchable electricity storage device comprises at least one of a stretchable battery or a stretchable supercapacitor. The stretchable electricity storage device may be connected to the stretchable triboelectric generator and may store electricity generated by the stretchable triboelectric generator. The wearable electronic device comprises the stretchable triboelectric generator, the stretchable electricity storage device and a sensor connected electrically to at least one of the stretchable triboelectric generator or the stretchable electricity storage device to sense vital signs, bio signals, or body's movement changes.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A stretchable triboelectric generator, comprising: a first stretchable triboelectric generation part comprising a first fabric layer and a first friction layer on the first fabric layer; and a second stretchable triboelectric generation part comprising a second fabric layer and a second friction layer on the second fabric layer, wherein the first friction layer comprises first friction patterns and second friction patterns disposed alternatingly, and the second friction layer comprises third friction patterns and fourth friction patterns disposed alternatingly. 2. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein a work function of the first friction layer is different from a work function of the second friction layer. 3. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein a charge amount by triboelectrification of the first friction layer and the second friction layer is determined by a difference between a work function of the first friction layer and that of the second friction layer. 4. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein the first friction layer comprises PEIE and the second friction layer comprises silicone rubber. 5. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein the first friction patterns, the second friction patterns, the third friction patterns, and the fourth friction patterns have different surface roughnesses. 6. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein the first friction patterns comprise polyurethane, the second friction patterns comprise polyimide, the third friction patterns comprise polydimethylsiloxane, and the fourth friction patterns comprise aluminum (Al). 7. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein the first friction patterns and the second friction patterns have substantially the same thickness, and the third friction patterns and the fourth friction patterns have substantially the same thickness. 8. The stretchable triboelectric generator of claim 1 , wherein the first fabric layer and the second fabric layer comprise at least one of conductive nylon fabric or conductive carbon fabric.
