About

Peihua Yang is pioneering the development of smart, multifunctional hydrogels for next-generation energy and sensing technologies. Her research focuses on creating intelligent materials that can self-regulate and adapt—key to advancing wearable electronics, soft robotics, and artificial intelligence. Yang’s most cited work, “Hydrogels Enable Future Smart Batteries” (2022, 127 citations), establishes a foundational framework for self-adjusting power sources that respond to operational conditions, a critical step toward truly autonomous devices. She further demonstrates this vision with “Stretchable and Self-Powered Temperature–Pressure Dual Sensing Ionic Skins Based on Thermogalvanic Hydrogels” (2022, 56 citations), where she engineers a skin-like sensor that simultaneously detects temperature and pressure while withstanding tensile deformation—mimicking human haptic functions. Her recent “Ultra-stretchable hydrogel thermocouples for intelligent wearables” (2023, 31 citations) pushes boundaries in conformable, self-powered temperature mapping. With over 200 total citations, Yang’s work is shaping the future of smart materials, offering elegant solutions that merge energy storage, sensing, and mechanical resilience. Her contributions are essential reading for researchers aiming to integrate intelligence into everyday objects.
