- Building upon our earlier reports (Nano Energy 30(2016), 470-480; Nano Energy 40(2017), 471-480 and Nano Energy 46(2018), 63-72), the work is an outcome of the recent (2019) DST-NRF Newton Fellowship Award (ECR180426324617) for Soin. The work introduced thermoset polymers as a new class of tribo-positive materials for high-power-density triboelectric nanogenerators. Utilising specialised SPM mode of a Kelvin Probe Force Microscope, ex-situ mapping of surface-potential as a function of contact cycle provided unprecedented access to the nanoscale surface-charge dynamics underpinning IoT’s / sensor challenges within Shapes-CEC-H2020-DT TDS-01-2019-£352k and DfE Award-70279-£40k.
