About

Nan Wu is a leading researcher in flexible electronics and energy harvesting, with a particular focus on piezoelectret nanogenerators and advanced pressure-sensing technologies. Her most-cited work, "Flexible THV/COC Piezoelectret Nanogenerator for Wide-Range Pressure Sensing" (2018, 35 citations), introduces a novel design for flexible pressure sensors that achieve robust stability, high sensitivity, and a large linear pressure range—critical attributes for applications in artificial electronic skin, intelligent robotics, and wearable health monitoring. This contribution addresses key challenges in flexible physiological signal sensing, demonstrating how material innovation can bridge the gap between laboratory prototypes and real-world devices. Wu’s research is distinguished by its integration of polymer engineering with device architecture, enabling sensors that maintain performance under mechanical deformation. Her work has been instrumental in advancing the reliability and scalability of flexible sensors, earning recognition for its potential to transform human-machine interfaces and continuous health diagnostics. Through her systematic approach to material selection and device optimization, Nan Wu continues to shape the future of wearable and implantable electronic systems.
