Abstract Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) can convert various types of mechanical energy into electricity via coupling of contact electrification and electrostatic induction. The wide range of materials, device designs, high output power are few of the TENG advantages. The human body and internal organ motions can serve as an excellent energy source for TENG based self-powered healthcare applications. This review highlights the past 7-year development in TENG based biomedical and healthcare devices. A summary of TENG applications, including drug delivery, neural prosthesis, cell modulation, circulatory system, microbial disinfection, gene transfection, hair regeneration, biodegradable electronics, is presented. However, miniaturization, long-term stability, encapsulation, and in-vivo performance are the challenges that need to be addressed before any clinical trials. In the future, overcoming the problems will make TENG as an alternative power source for the biomedical and healthcare applications.

用于医疗保健和生物医学应用的摩擦纳米发电机

摘要 摩擦纳米发电机（TENG）可以通过接触带电和静电感应的耦合将各种类型的机械能转化为电能。广泛的材料、器件设计、高输出功率是 TENG 的一些优势。人体和内部器官的运动可以作为基于 TENG 的自供电医疗保健应用的极好能源。本综述重点介绍了基于 TENG 的生物医学和医疗保健设备过去 7 年的发展。概述了 TENG 的应用，包括药物递送、神经假体、细胞调节、循环系统、微生物消毒、基因转染、毛发再生、可生物降解电子产品。但小型化、长期稳定性、封装性、和体内性能是任何临床试验之前需要解决的挑战。未来，克服这些问题将使 TENG 成为生物医学和医疗保健应用的替代电源。
