Piezoelectric effects have been produced in a number of soft tissues, as well as hard, and appear to be associated with the presence of oriented fibrous proteins such as collagen. Thus ...
Such a structure, consisting essentially of apatite crystals embedded in an organic matrix, might be expected to exhibit piezoelectric properties, as in the case of many other multicrystalline ...
Researchers are breaking limits by increasing the temperature multiferroics can operate at, from room temperature up to a blistering 160 degrees Celsius.
This interconversion between mechanical and electrical energy makes piezoelectric crystals highly useful for various sensing and actuation applications. The piezoelectric effect arises from the ...
Tohoku University researchers are breaking limits by increasing the temperature multiferroics can operate at, from room temperature up to a blistering 160℃.
The electric spark generated by the piezoelectric effect causes gold atoms to precipitate from the fluids on the quartz surface, forming ideal conditions for further gold accumulation. As the ...
