Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a charge pump-based artificial lightning generator comprises the steps of: forming a second electrode on a prepared substrate; forming a negatively charged body having a sponge structure under the second electrode; removing spherical polymer particles from the negatively charged body using a toluene solution; allowing metal particles to penetrate into the negatively charged body; forming a positively charged body in a location which is at a predetermined distance below the negatively charged body in order to generate charges; nano-structuring the surface of the positively charged body; coating the nano-structured surface of the positively charged body with second metal particles; forming a ground layer for charge separation while maintaining a constant distance in the downward direction from one side of the positively charged body; and forming a first electrode for charge accumulation in a location which is at a predetermined distance below the positively charged body. Accordingly, the present invention can be miniaturized, can produce high-output energy from minute energy such as a wind, a vibration, or a sound, and can remarkably reduce costs incurred according to energy collection.
