Abstract: A power generating apparatus (100) is provided with first substrates (2b, 2c) whereupon a first electrode (3) is arranged on one surface; a second substrate (1a) which includes a second electrode (6) arranged to face a first electrode on the one surface side of the first substrate; and sliding mechanisms (10, 11, 12, 13 and 14) arranged at least on the one surface side or the other surface side of the first substrate. The sliding mechanism holds the first substrate so that the first substrate moves relatively to the second substrate in a second direction (X direction) while suppressing movement of the first substrate in a first direction (Z direction).

Abstract: An electrostatic operating apparatus (electrostatic induction generator) includes a first substrate having a first electrode and a second electrode and set in a state where the first electrode and the second electrode are electrically separated from each other at least on the substrate and a second substrate including an electret member, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate are so provided as to be opposed to each other at an interval and so formed as to be movable relatively with each other, and at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode is so formed as to be capacitively coupled with the electret member.

Abstract: An electret device includes a substrate formed with a plurality of recess portions on a main surface thereof and an electret film so formed on the main surface of the substrate as to cover at least inner surfaces of the recess portions.

Abstract: An electret device includes an electret film into which charges are injected and a barrier film provided on a surface of the electret film and having an electron affinity smaller than the electron affinity of the electret film.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a power generator including a movable portion displaced by kinetic energy acting on an electronic apparatus body and a conversion portion converting displacement of the movable portion to electric energy, wherein the movable portion of the power generator is arranged at a position separated from a support portion of the electronic apparatus body.

Abstract: An electric power generator capable of using external vibrations in various directions to generate power. A fixed substrate having a surface with a plurality of electret electrodes and a movable substrate having a surface with a movable electrode are spaced from each other. The fixed substrate is fixed in the electric power generator. Spring driving bodies support the movable substrate so that the movable substrate elastically moves in any direction within an XY plane when receiving external vibrations.
