In this work, we proposed firstly a frictional heat-assisted performance enhancement in dynamic Schottky contact from the rubbing between n-type silver selenide (Ag<sub>2</sub>Se) and aluminum. The chemical composition and physical characteristics of the Ag<sub>2</sub>Se ceramic were analyzed using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Synchrotron X-ray tomography techniques.

Moreover, the presence of the Schottky junction was demonstrated through the analysis of the current-bias voltage characteristic curve of the Ag<sub>2</sub>Se/aluminum (Al) contact under varying stress and temperature conditions. The built-in electric field plays a crucial part in the tribovoltaic effect by efficiently transferring the excited carriers to an external load through sliding contact between Ag<sub>2</sub>Se and Al. Demonstrating the synergy between tribovoltaic and thermoelectric effects becomes achievable through the excellent thermoelectric property of Ag<sub>2</sub>Se.
