Researchers have developed a technique for growing piezoelectric biomolecular crystals that could eliminate the use of toxic ...

Piezoelectric crystals are a class of materials that exhibit a unique property called piezoelectricity. These crystals generate an electrical charge when subjected to mechanical stress or strain, and ...

Over the past few decades, relaxor-based piezoelectric single crystals (piezocrystals), such as lead magnesium ... This should decrease time-to-market of a new material and make it easier to ...

Finding a local source for crystal earpieces might be tough, but piezo speakers are common on things that make beeps like motherboards or microwave ovens. Hackaday’s own [Steven Dufresne] shows ...

One of the keys to making the latest generation of diesel ... Piezo injectors use a stack of piezo crystal plates that expand when an electric current is applied. That expansion causes the needle ...

Advances in materials science stemming from research in South Korea are leading to higher-performance piezoelectric and ...

Natural quartz crystals usually have a long body with ... and processed to make finished piezoelectric components. R. A. Sullivan and R. A. Ladice at Western Electric’s pilot plant for synthetic ...

North America holds a dominant share of the global piezoelectric sensor market, primarily due to the presence of key players ...

In a new study published in Nature, researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and collaborators show that the efficacy of a commonly used piezoelectric ceramic material can be dramatically ...
