Abstract

ABSTRACT Piezoelectric biocrystals offer transformative potential for bio‐integrated electronics in healthcare and regenerative medicine due to their intrinsic biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, their practical use has been significantly limited by weak electromechanical performance, with most exhibiting zero or low d 33 coefficients
