About
Zhaoqun Du is a leading researcher at the forefront of smart textiles and wearable electronics, specializing in energy harvesting, self-powered sensors, and multifunctional fabric-based systems. His pioneering work on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) is exemplified by his highly cited 2019 study on 3D double-faced interlock fabric TENGs (348 citations), which demonstrated bio-motion energy harvesting and self-powered tactile sensing. Du has made transformative contributions to MXene-based smart fabrics, developing dual-energy-driven heaters with fast-response actuation and strain-sensing capabilities, as well as pressure sensors combining nanofiber films and spacer fabrics for ultrahigh sensitivity and Joule heating. His innovations extend to helical yarn structures for broad-strain motion monitoring and yarn-grouping weaving approaches for soft robotics with directional inflation and self-sensing. With over 500 total citations, Du’s work bridges materials science and textile engineering, enabling practical applications in human-machine interfaces, healthcare monitoring, and wearable thermotherapy. His research consistently pushes the boundaries of flexible, durable, and multifunctional e-textiles, establishing him as a key figure in the next generation of intelligent wearable technology.
