When it comes to high-precision motion control, the type of motor you choose plays a pivotal role in determining the accuracy ...
Advances in materials science stemming from research in South Korea are leading to higher-performance piezoelectric and ...
The piezoelectric effect arises from the asymmetric arrangement of atoms in certain crystalline materials. When a piezoelectric crystal is subjected to mechanical stress, the deformation of the ...
The piezoelectric effect is simple in its rules: Apply mechanical stress to a material and you generate an electric charge. The inverse is also true: Apply a voltage to a material, and it changes ...
North America holds a dominant share of the global piezoelectric sensor market, primarily due to the presence of key players ...
Researchers fom South Korea’s Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology have developed an extremely efficient energy harvesting device. This innovative new device turns body movements into ...
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 ...
Making Electronic Devices Flexible With smartphones, we have become used to carrying electronics with us all the time. This is, however, still done with a bulky block of metal and plastic, which, if ...
To that end, they are beginning efforts to test compounds that can produce an even stronger piezoelectric effect, and believe ...
