## Abstract

Organic piezoelectric materials have garnered increasing interest for biomechanical applications; however, their practical appeal has been limited by low piezoelectricity and low mechanical compliance. Recently, liquid–liquid interface polar engineering has emerged as a promising strategy to overcome these limitations. By utilizing polarity asymmetry at the liquid–liquid interface, this strategy enables precise control over molecular assembly and phase separation, thereby inducing high piezoelectric polarization of organic materials while maintaining their intrinsic mechanical compliance. This breakthrough paves the way for developing organic piezoelectric materials that exhibit both high piezoelectricity and high mechanical compliance, advancing their potential in biomechanical sensing, actuating, and energy harvesting.
