介质弹性体发电机是一种具有高能量密度和高灵活性的可变电容发电机。目前，介电弹性体发生器需要外部电路，这使得系统更笨重，灵活性更差。在本文中，我们提出了一种系统，它将外部电路最小化到六个二极管，从而在系统级保持了高能量密度和灵活性。实验证明，该发电机的能量密度为12.6MJ/g，与同等尺寸的电磁发电机和静电发电机相比具有很大的优势。(C)2010年美国物理研究所。[DOI：10.1063/1.3478468]
Dielectric elastomer generators are a form of variable capacitor electricity generator with a high energy density and high flexibility. Currently, dielectric elastomer generators require external circuitry which makes the system bulkier and less flexible. In this paper we present a system that minimizes the external circuitry to six diodes so that high energy density and flexibility is maintained at the system level. An energy density of 12.6 mJ/g was experimentally demonstrated, comparing favorably with similarly sized electromagnetic and electrostatic power generators. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.
