Abstract
Thermoelectrics (TEs), enabling the direct conversion between heat and electrical energy, have demonstrated extensive application potential in biomedical fields. Herein, the mechanism of the TE effect, recent developments in TE materials, and the biocompatibility assessment of TE materials are provided. In addition to the fundamentals of TEs, a timely and comprehensive review of the recent progress of advanced TE materials and their applications is presented, including wearable power generation, personal thermal management, and biosensing. In addition, the new-emerged medical applications of TE materials in wound healing, disease treatment, antimicrobial therapy, and anti-cancer therapy are thoroughly reviewed. Finally, the main challenges and future possibilities are outlined for TEs in biomedical fields, as well as their material selection criteria for specific application scenarios. Together, these advancements can provide innovative insights into the development of TEs for broader applications in biomedical fields.
热电（TE）可实现热能与电能的直接转换，在生物医学领域具有广泛的应用潜力。本文介绍了热电效应的机理、热电材料的最新发展以及热电材料的生物相容性评估。除了介绍 TE 的基本原理，还及时全面地回顾了先进 TE 材料的最新进展及其应用，包括可穿戴发电、个人热管理和生物传感。此外，还深入评述了 TE 材料在伤口愈合、疾病治疗、抗菌治疗和抗癌治疗方面的新兴医疗应用。最后，概述了 TE 在生物医学领域面临的主要挑战和未来的可能性，以及针对特定应用场景的材料选择标准。总之，这些进展可以为开发 TEs 在生物医学领域的更广泛应用提供创新见解。
