Advanced Piezoelectric Materials, Devices, and Systems for Orthopedic Medicine by Jingkai Zhang, Chang Liu, Jun Li, Tao Yu, Jing Ruan, Fan Yang

“…Abstract Harnessing the robust electromechanical couplings, piezoelectric materials not only enable efficient bio‐energy harvesting, physiological sensing and actuating but also open enormous opportunities for therapeutic treatments through surface polarization directly interacting with electroactive cells, tissues, and organs. Known for its highly oriented and hierarchical structure, collagen in natural bones produces local electrical signals to stimulate osteoblasts and promote bone formation, inspiring the application of piezoelectric materials in orthopedic medicine. …”
