An inverting TENG to realize the AC mode based on the coupling of triboelectrification and air-breakdown

Chuncai Shan et al.

Summary: The TENG has two output modes - AC and DC, and an inverting TENG has been proposed to convert DC into AC by setting alternating polarity distribution areas. Unlike traditional AC-TENG, the inverting TENG allows for changing the width ratio and amplitude ratio of AC signals by adjusting the distributed width and electronegativity difference of two opposite materials.
