  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. This demonstration will show an electronic version of the classical "doubler of electricity", a simple electrostatic generator that can be used for energy harvesting from vibrational sources. A high-voltage prototype built to validate the concept and study the properties of the device will be demonstrated. Other doublers, including a higher power version with rotating motion, will be demonstrated too.
