Talk Title : "Design and Development of Metal-Organic Frameworks Based Triboelectric Nanogenerator for Sustainable Power Generation".
Abstract
TENGs have gained significant attention due to their ability to convert mechanical energy into electricity. Advancements in materials like metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and device architecture have led the improvements in performance. Recently, the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based TENGs has attracted attention due to their triboelectrification properties and charge trapping ability. In this regard, we present series of MOFs-TENGs devices which generated a maximum output power density: (i) the Cd-MOF-TENG device was attached to the fingers of a glove and used to control the mouse movement in a computer via finger movements as “Air Mouse”, (ii) another case the V-shaped Zn-MOFTENG is utilized for low-powered electronics and smart sports sensor in detection and monitoring and (iii) Mn-MOF-TENG device as Parking Sensor.
