摘      要：Medical implants with functionalities such as sensing,health monitoring,stimulation,diagnosis,and physiological treatment are rapidly *** the increasing functional sophistication and addition of modules such as data transmission,on-chip processing,and data storage,energy demand of the implantable system is also *** implantable energy harvester either to recharge or ultimately replace hazardous battery is essential to provide a long-term sustainable *** harvesting techniques using piezoelectric,thermoelectric,radio frequency power transmission,biofuel,and photoelectronic(or sometimes termed as“photovoltaicin terms of solar light harvesting,i.e.,PV)conversion,have been attempted for the implantable,but these methods are currently limited by insufficient power output,large footprint,and low ***,the planar PV with potential of lighter weight,higher energy density,and higher efficiency,provides promising power solution for in-body medical *** this short review,we will discuss the potential opportunities and challenges associated with PV s for medical implants,covering materials,to devices,and to system level requirements.
