About
Xuedan Zhu is a leading researcher in the field of wearable energy harvesting and self-powered sensing technologies. Her work focuses on developing flexible, textile-based triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) that can efficiently convert mechanical energy from human motion into electrical power. Zhu's most notable contribution is a humidity-resistant, stretchable, and wearable textile-based TENG, which overcomes a critical limitation of conventional energy harvesters that degrade in moist environments. This innovation, published in 2021 and garnering over 100 citations, enables reliable energy harvesting and multifunctional self-powered haptic sensing even under challenging conditions. Her research has significant implications for smart textiles, wearable electronics, and human-machine interfaces, offering a pathway toward truly autonomous and durable wearable systems. Zhu's work is widely recognized for its practical impact, bridging materials science and device engineering to create robust, real-world solutions for sustainable energy and interactive sensing.
