Article Abstract
Flexible hybrid nanogenerators (HNGs) have received significant attention for their potential in harvesting mechanical energy to power portable and miniaturized portable devices. This work presents a method to fabricate flexible, durable and biodegradable electrospun polydopamine@barium titanate/cellulose acetate (PDA@BTO/CA) nanofiber films. This design integrates polydopamine (PDA) and piezoelectric barium titanate (BTO) nanoparticles within a flexible cellulose acetate (CA) matrix to enable self-powered wearable biomonitoring. The inclusion of PDA enhances the physical adhesion between BTO and CA, resulting in a significant 40% increase in voltage output. Notably, the PDA-modified composite PDA@BTO/CA demonstrates remarkable durability over 15,000 cycles and effectively detects a range of human motions (such as fist clenching, wrist bending, elbow movement, walking, running and jumping), transducing them into stable, precise electrical signals. Intriguingly, the hybrid nanogenerator device exhibits robust performance in extreme conditions, including underwater and high or low temperatures, while maintaining its good biodegradability. This work paves the way for advanced self-powered wearable biosensor devices capable of precise and reliable human motion monitoring.

Gel-based electronic skin (e-skin) has recently emerged as one of the most promising interfaces for human-machine interaction and wearable devices, owing to its exceptional flexibility, extensibility, transparency, biocompatibility, high-quality physiological signal monitoring, and system integration suitability. However, conventional hydrogel-based e-skins may exhibit limitations in mechanical strength and stretchability compatibility, as well as poor environmental stability. To address these challenges, following a top-down fabrication strategy, this study innovatively integrates poly(methacrylic acid), titanium sulfate, and ethylene glycol (EG) into the three-dimensional collagen fiber network structure of zeolite-tanned sheepskin to successfully develop an organogel (SMEMT) e-skin, which exhibits superior high toughness, environmental stability, high transparency (74% light transmittance at 550 nm), antibacterial properties and ecological compatibility.

With the rapid development of precision medicine and the continuous evolution of smart wearable devices, photothermal materials (PTMs) are experiencing a tremendous opportunity for growth. PTMs can efficiently convert light energy into heat to achieve localized thermal therapy for specific cells or tissues, offering advantages of minimal invasiveness, high selectivity, and precise targeting. Furthermore, PTMs can serve as molecular imaging probes and smart drug carriers, integrating multiple functions such as bioimaging and drug delivery to realize the visualization and controlled release of therapeutic processes.

Bifunctional integration of indoor organic photovoltaics (OPVs) and photodetectors (OPDs) faces fundamental challenges because of incompatible interfacial thermodynamics: indoor OPVs require unimpeded charge extraction under low-light conditions (200-1000 lx), whereas OPDs require stringent suppression of noise current. Conventional hole transport layers (HTLs) fail to satisfy these opposing charge-dynamic requirements concurrently with commercial practicality (large-area uniformity, photostability, and cost-effective manufacturability). This study introduces benzene-phosphonic acid (BPA)-a minimalist self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-based HTL with a benzene core and phosphonic acid anchoring group-enabling cost-effective synthesis and excellent ITO interfacial properties such as energy alignment, uniform monolayer, and stability.
