Performance Optimization, Characterization, and Multiphysics Coupling Simulation of Bio-derived Electromagnetic Functional Materials

The proliferation of wireless technology raised concerns about electromagnetic radiation's biological effects, including oxidative stress and potential carcinogenicity. To address this challenge, the development of high-performance electromagnetic protective materials holds significant strategic importance. Concurrently, emerging medical applications like neural modulation and targeted hyperthermia demand precise EM energy control. However, traditional absorbers offer strong attenuation but suffer from rigidity, non-degradability, and cytotoxicity. Therefore, bio-derived electromagnetic functional materials (such as biomass carbon and bioinspired metamaterials) designed based on biological components and structural characteristics have become a research hotspot due to their environmental friendliness and structural compatibility. More fundamentally, the deep integration of electromagnetic materials with biomaterials, biomanufacturing technologies, and bioreactors is driving the advancement of emerging fields like bioelectromagnetic medicine, which imposes higher requirements on the multifunctionality and biocompatibility of electromagnetic materials.This research is dedicated to developing high-performance and environmentally friendly bio-derived electromagnetic functional materials to tackle the growing challenge of electromagnetic pollution.
