Abstract
Example embodiments relate to an electrode structure, a triboelectric generator including the electrode structure, and a method of manufacturing the electrode structure. The electrode structure includes a flexible layer configured to be bendable by an external force and an electrode, at least some regions thereof being embedded in the flexible layer.
Claims11
A triboelectric generator comprising:
- a first charging layer and a second charging layer, the first and second charging layers being configured to be in contact with, or to be spaced apart from each other, the first and second charging layers being configured to be charged with opposite polarities when in contact with each other;
- a first electrode on the first charging layer;
- and
- a second electrode spaced apart from the first electrode, at least some regions of the second electrode being embedded in the second charging layer,
- wherein the second electrode is embedded in a surface of the second charging layer opposite to the surface of the second charging layer contacting the first charging layer, and electrical energy generated from the triboelectric generator depends on areal factor of the second electrode.
