cord-030610-zjymmuuy	Li, Jun	Respiration‐driven triboelectric nanogenerators for biomedical applications	2020-08-09		.txt	text/plain	9185	514	43	The energy from respiration featured with excellent stability, accessibility and continuality inspires the design and engineering of biomechanical energy harvesting devices, such as triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), to realize human‐powered electronics. Biomedical applications including electrical energy generation, healthcare monitoring, air filtration, gas sensing, electrostimulation, and powering implantable medical devices are then analyzed focusing on the design‐application relationships. Among a number of mechanical energy harvesting principles, triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) stands out with its simple configuration, light weight, large power density, high energy conversion efficiency, and durability. 86, 87 In general, clear understanding of the respiration mechanics together with triboelectric principles lays the foundation for the design and engineering of TENG devices that could effectively convert respiration motions into continuous electricity for a variety of biomedical applications. This challenge is also beyond respiration-driven TENGs and is applicable to all other implantable energy harvesting devices for powering IMDs. Above critical challenges need short or long-term dedicated research efforts from multiple disciplines, including material science, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and of course biomedical engineering.	./cache/cord-030610-zjymmuuy.txt	./txt/cord-030610-zjymmuuy.txt
