About

Qingshen Jing is a leading researcher in nanogenerators, piezotronics, and flexible microfluidic sensors. His work focuses on converting mechanical energy into electrical power and developing advanced, conformable sensing technologies. Jing’s most significant contribution is his role in the "Roadmap on nanogenerators and piezotronics" (2022, 60 citations), which provides a comprehensive overview of the field since the invention of the piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) and triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). This roadmap has become a key reference for researchers exploring energy harvesting and self-powered systems. Additionally, Jing has pioneered aerosol-jet-printed, conformable microfluidic force sensors (2021, 26 citations), which are thin, low-cost, and flexible, making them ideal for biomedical sensing, precision surgery, and robotics. By integrating microfluidics with capacitive sensing, his sensors offer high sensitivity and compatibility with commercial microelectronic chips. Jing’s innovations bridge the gap between fundamental nanogenerator research and practical, scalable sensing devices, demonstrating strong impact in both energy and biomedical applications. His work continues to inspire new directions in flexible electronics and wearable technology.
