About

Yijia Lu is a leading researcher in the fields of wearable electronics, self-powered systems, and human-machine interfaces. Her work focuses on developing innovative, flexible devices that harvest energy from the environment to power sensors and actuators, with a particular emphasis on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and smart bandage technologies. Lu’s major contributions include the creation of a stretchable, self-adhesive, and self-powered smart bandage capable of motion perception and intention recognition (53 citations), which represents a significant step forward in intelligent healthcare monitoring and prosthetics. She also pioneered an alternating current electroluminescent (ACEL) device powered by a TENG using a capacitively driven circuit strategy (38 citations), solving the long-standing challenge of driving high-voltage ACEL devices without bulky external power supplies. This work demonstrates her ability to integrate energy harvesting with functional output in a single, flexible platform. With her papers already garnering substantial early-career attention, Yijia Lu is establishing herself as an innovator at the intersection of materials science, energy harvesting, and biomedical engineering, with clear potential for transformative impact in wearable technology.
