- Piezoelectricity - Wikipedia
Piezoelectricity ( ˌpiːzoʊ -, ˌpiːtsoʊ -, paɪˌiːzoʊ - , US: piˌeɪzoʊ -, piˌeɪtsoʊ - [1]) is the electric charge that accumulates in certain solid materials—such as crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA, and various proteins —in response to applied mechanical stress [2][3][4]
- Piezoelectricity and the Piezoelectric Effect
Piezoelectricity is a property of certain materials that allows them to generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress The term originates from the Greek word “piezein,” which means to press or squeeze, aptly describing the process of generating electricity through pressure
- Piezoelectricity, Acoustic Wave, Ultrasound - Britannica
piezoelectricity, appearance of positive electric charge on one side of certain nonconducting crystals and negative charge on the opposite side when the crystals are subjected to mechanical pressure
- Piezoelectricity - How does it work? | What is it used for?
Piezoelectricity (also called the piezoelectric effect) is the appearance of an electrical potential (a voltage, in other words) across the sides of a crystal when you subject it to mechanical stress (by squeezing it)
