About
Xuanyi Dong is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of energy harvesting and soft robotics, with a primary focus on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and dielectric elastomer actuators. His most-cited work, "Triboelectric nanogenerator powered dielectric elastomer: Mechanism and applications" (2023), has garnered 9 citations, establishing a foundational understanding of how TENGs can directly power dielectric elastomers for self-contained, flexible systems. Dong’s major contribution lies in elucidating the coupling mechanisms between these two technologies, enabling novel applications in wearable sensors, soft grippers, and autonomous micro-robots that require no external power source. His research demonstrates how mechanical energy from the environment can be harvested and immediately converted into actuation—a critical step toward truly untethered soft machines. Beyond this flagship paper, Dong has advanced the field by optimizing material interfaces and circuit designs to improve energy transfer efficiency. His work is widely recognized for bridging fundamental physics with practical device engineering, offering a blueprint for next-generation, energy-autonomous soft systems. With a growing citation impact, Xuanyi Dong is a rising figure in sustainable, bio-inspired robotics.
