Magnetic effects in piezoelectric beam dynamics represent a nuanced interaction where magnetic fields, generated either internally by the beam’s own current or externally via applied fields, influence ...

The effect: polarisation and electric field are pointing in the same direction. With positive d33, the sample expands, whereas the material is contracting when d33 is negative. Since 2011, it has been ...

Conventional electronics process information leveraging the electrical charge of electrons. Over the past few decades, some ...

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a piezoelectric polymer material that has shown great aptitude as a pressure and flow sensor, especially in biomedical applications. However, most of the PVDF thin ...

Teijin’s New Films Development Section in conjunction with Professor Yoshiro Tajitsu, Faculty of Engineering Science at Kansai University, unveiled what it is calling a flexible, transparent ...

Lightweight and compact precision piezo actuators and grippers from PI USA provide high speed and nanometer resolution in a small package. Auburn, MA – The piezoelectric effect directly converts ...

The word “piezo” derives from the Greek word piezein, meaning “to press tightly”. Piezoelectricity refers to a material’s ability to convert mechanical energy (pressing) into electric energy ...

This unique dual harvesting arrangement, which simultaneously harvests energy from magnetic fields and ultrasound sources, can provide more power than either one alone—at no cost. Why dual-source ...

Somehow extracting gold from seawater (which has not a lot of it, but there's just a fucking lot of seawater, and it is easily accessible) has kept many people up since ages, but to no avail yet. You ...
