(Nanowerk News) Piezoelectric materials hold great promise as sensors and as energy harvesters but are normally much less effective at high temperatures, limiting their use in environments such as ...

Heat and pressure can deteriorate the properties of piezoelectric materials that make state-of-the-art ultrasound and sonar technologies possible -- and fixing that damage has historically required ...

You may have heard the term 'piezoelectricity' tossed about, but you may not realize just how ubiquitous this miniature ...

Piezoelectric materials exhibit a two-way electromechanical coupling whereby mechanical strain induces an electric charge and an applied electric field produces mechanical deformation. This dual ...

Piezoelectricity is a property of certain materials to become electrically polarized under strain and stress. This phenomenon has been studied extensively since it was first discovered in the mid-18 ...

New paper-thin piezoelectric patch sensors designed for at-home stroke rehabilitation may soon revolutionize post-stroke care ...

In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers from North Carolina State University developed a method to restore the properties of piezoelectric materials at room temperature. This ...

Noliac is one of the only companies in the world capable of manufacturing multilayer piezoelectric components based upon a choice of different materials, each having optimised properties for specific ...
