Abstract

This article presents a comprehensive overview of currently available research on bioimplantable energy harvesters, with a specific focus on their fabrication and issue of biocompatibility. Both the achievements and limitations of the field are pointed out from the standpoint of materials science and engineering as directions for future research. Particular attention is paid to the controversy over the use of lead-based or lead-free piezoelectric ceramics in biomedical applications, which is closely related to different temporalities of research on biological conditions. This report is intended to serve as a reference guide for developing the next generation of piezoelectric biomedical devices.
