Popis: Triboelectricity is a self-powered phenomenon that has recently attracted attention because it is capable of instantaneously generating a large amount of electrical power. In this study, we developed a method to fabricate a fabric-based triboelectric energy-harvesting device and enhanced the output of this device using a Fluorinert coating and ultraviolet (UV)/ozone surface treatment. Through simple surface treatment processes, the electrical output of triboelectric self-generation device will be significantly increased, and at the same time, it will present the possibility of being naturally suitable for next-generation electric clothing products.
