The invention discloses a
metal-
semiconductor direct current friction nanometer generator based on a depletion mode u-GaN / AlGaN / AlN / GaN
high electron mobility
transistor. The generator comprises a
titanium (Ti)
metal friction layer and a depletion mode GaN HEMT friction layer, and
direct current is generated through the interface friction
volt effect. The core of the invention lies in that high-concentration two-dimensional
electron gas (2DEG) and surface state characteristics in the u-GaN / AlGaN / AlN / GaN
heterojunction are utilized, and the friction
volt effect is combined, so that efficient
mechanical energy-
electric energy conversion is realized. In the dynamic Schottky contact of the D-GaN HEMT and
metal, unbalanced carriers in u-GaN Cap are excited by friction, electrons and holes are separated by a built-in
electric field, surface state electrons of u-GaN Cap obtain friction energy to be transited to a
conduction band, and a
Schottky barrier is overcome to form current; in the sliding process, metal and a
semiconductor interact to increase the surface
state density, a large number of electrons are excited, chemical bonds are formed, two-dimensional
electron gas is formed on an AlN / GaN interface and flows back under a reverse
electric field, the
electron concentration is maintained, current is continuously generated, and finally
direct current is formed in an
external circuit.
