This project investigates the mechanisms of charge transfer in insulators during contact, known as tribocharging. Using a multi-scale experimental approach, it aims to understand charge carriers and their behavior on surfaces, with potential applications in technologies like triboelectric nanogenerators.
Tribocharging, i.e. charge transfer during contact, is a fundamental effect of widespread importance, yet we do not understand it.
For insulators, even the most basic questions are open:
What are the charge carriers?
How do they bind to a surface?
What drives them between surfaces?
The aim of this proposal is to establish the mechanism of insulator tribocharging.
Building on my work to develop new experiments and test existing models, we will use a multi-scale approach to find the origin of this…
