Abstract
A triboelectric generator is disclosed. The triboelectric generator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a flexible electrode part comprising a first and a second dielectric layer, and at least one metal layer; and a fixed electrode part spaced apart from both sides of the flexible electrode part, and comprising a first and a second electrode connected to each other, wherein the flexible electrode part generates triboelectrification based on contact and non-contact by a fluid flow, and an electric charge moves through the metal layer, thereby effectively moving electric charges generated by triboelectrification, and increasing the friction frequency to enhance power generation efficiency.
