About
Aswathy Babu is a rising researcher in the field of advanced materials and energy harvesting, with a focus on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and additive manufacturing. Her work centers on integrating functional polymer layers with flexible, stretchable substrates to create next-generation wearable energy devices. Babu’s most notable contribution is her pioneering approach to directly 3D-printing triboactive polymer layers onto conductive fabrics, overcoming significant challenges related to high-temperature processing and adhesion. Her 2025 paper on this topic, which has already garnered 17 citations, introduces a novel method for fabricating high-performance textile-TENGs (T-TENGs) that combine mechanical durability with superior electrical output. This work holds promise for powering wearable electronics and self-powered sensors. By bridging the gap between 3D printing technology and flexible electronics, Babu is advancing the practical realization of energy-autonomous textiles. Her research not only demonstrates technical innovation but also addresses critical manufacturing hurdles, positioning her as an emerging leader in sustainable, scalable energy harvesting solutions.
