Bushara Fatma obtained PhD degree (Materials Science and Engineering) from Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK), India in 2021 followed by one year of research experience as Research Scientist (2022). She received her Master degree in Physics as well as in Nanotechnology from Aligarh Muslim University, India. Her research interests focus on the fabrication of multifunctional materials for energy and sensing applications utilizing techniques such as triboelectricity, piezoelectricity and magnetoelectricity. She has multi-disciplinary research experience including nanomaterials synthesis, biopolymers, wearable and implantable devices for environment, energy and healthcare applications
Taking advantage of high electron loosing ability of polydopamine, high performance nanocoated bacterial cellulose (BC)-based TENG is reported with seven-times enhanced energy harvesting efficiency as compared to pristine BC. Pristine/nanocoated BC films are found to be bio/hemo-compatible and their different combinations are used to make BC-based TENGs as potential implants. Moreover, single electrode All-BC TENG is developed as an on-body energy harvester, demonstrating properties such as conformability, breathability and degradability.
