Ultrasound-Driven Two-Dimensional Ti3C2Tx MXene Hydrogel Generator

Abstract

Ultrasound is a source of ambient energy that is rarely exploited. In this work, a tissue-mimicking MXene-hydrogel (M-gel) implantable generator has been designed to convert ultrasound power into electric energy. Unlike the present harvesting methods for implantable ultrasound energy harvesters, our M-gel generator is based on an electroacoustic phenomenon known as the streaming vibration potential. Moreover, the output power of the M-gel generator can be improved by coupling with triboelectrification. We demonstrate the potential of this generator for powering implantable devices through quick charging of electric gadgets, buried beneath a centimeter thick piece of beef. The performance is attractive, especially given the extremely simple structure of the generator, consisting of nothing more than encapsulated M-gel. The generator can harvest energy from various ultrasound sources, from ultrasound tips in the lab to the probes used in hospitals and households for imaging and physiotherapy.
