Abstract

This paper introduces a microscale soft flexible lithium-ion droplet battery (LiDB) constructed using biocompatible silk hydrogel. The LiDB demonstrates triggerable activation, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and high capacity. Its applications are shown through powering electrophoretic translocation of charged molecules, defibrillation and pacing of mouse hearts, and magnetically-enabled propulsion.
