Strong tribo-piezoelectric effect in bilayer indium nitride (InN)

Md. Sherajul Islam et al.

Summary: This study investigated the tribo-piezoelectric properties of 2D-indium nitride through first-principles calculations, revealing a strong vertical piezoelectric effect during in-plane interlayer sliding, leading to the generation of tribo-biological energy. The A-A stacking of bilayer InN was found to exhibit the highest out-of-plane piezoelectricity, with a proposed nanogenerator model capable of producing a maximum output power density of around 73 mWcm(-2) during vertical sliding.
