About

Hongmei Yang is a leading researcher at the forefront of sustainable energy harvesting and bio-integrated electronics. Her work centers on the development of bio-derived natural materials for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), aiming to power the next generation of ubiquitous wearable and implantable intelligent devices. Yang’s major contribution lies in pioneering the use of eco-friendly, biocompatible materials to replace conventional synthetics in self-powered systems, addressing critical challenges in sustainability and device safety. Her highly cited 2020 paper, “Bio‐Derived Natural Materials Based Triboelectric Devices for Self‐Powered Ubiquitous Wearable and Implantable Intelligent Devices,” has garnered 68 citations, establishing a foundational framework for the field. She further advanced this area with a comprehensive 2022 roadmap, which has already attracted 13 citations, guiding future research directions. By enabling devices to scavenge operational power from their environment through sustainable pathways, Yang’s work is pivotal for realizing self-powered schemes in societally-pervasive applications, from health monitoring to smart textiles. Her research not only pushes the boundaries of energy harvesting but also champions environmental responsibility, making her a key figure in the transition toward greener, autonomous electronics.
