Abstract
AbstractNumerous associated challenges arise with the advancement and continuous improvement of implantable medical devices, such as the frequent requirement for battery replacement. The flexible ultrasonic‐induced wireless energy conversion (UWEC) technology has garnered significant interest due to its superior energy transmission efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility compared to traditional electromagnetic wireless energy conversion technology. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the recent advancements in two types of flexible UWEC technologies, triboelectric nanogenerators, and piezoelectret nanogenerators, with a focus on their applications in implantable medical treatments. First, the energy conversion principles and general materials of flexible UWEC are presented. Then, the research and application of flexible UWEC devices are introduced in detail based on their medical functions. At the end of this review, perspectives and opportunities are discussed.
