As the global energy consumption increasing rapidly,development and application of thermoelectric devices have become one of the effective ways to solve the problem.Among them,bismuth telluride(Bi2Te3)-based flexible devices attract widespread attention because they have been applied in the wearable sector gradually.However,due to the limitations of high material cost,rigid structure,and other factors,it is difficult for Bi2Te3-based flexible thermoelectric devices to achieve flexible wearable applications while maintaining efficient thermoelectric properties.This paper systematically reviews the current research progress of Bi2Te3-based flexible thermoelectric devices in terms of material composites and flexible structure design,especially in terms of flexible structure design,which covers three types of structures:Ingot-,film-and yarn-shaped.Finally,it summarizes and analyzes the possible future challenges and development trends of Bi2Te3-based flexible thermoelectric devices,to facilitate the realization of a wide range of applications for thermoelectric devices in the wearable field.
