Manufacturing open-mesoporous carbon nanofibers for flexible and wearable power sources

With the recently increasing development of lightweight, portable, flexible and wearable electronics for health and biomedical devices, there is an urgent need to explore new power sources with higher flexibility and human/tissue-adaptability. Now, researchers have engineered next-generation metal-air batteries, which can be easily fabricated into flexible and wristband-like cells. Though they require further development before they're ready for market, current studies have established solid evidence that these devices could provide enormous opportunities for the next generation of flexible, wearable and bio-adaptable power sources.
