The materials generate static as they rub together while the circuitry acts like
a variable capacitor, storing up the electrical charge generated.
Not exact matches
Relationships between these
variables led to the classic components of a circuit — resistor,
capacitor, inductor — with the exception of one pairing: charge + flux.
Again, because these materials act as soft
capacitors,
variable - capacitance power generators and energy harvesters can be built from them.
