The Underlying Chemistry of Piezo Materials

On Pebrero 6, 2019 in All, Energy Harvesting, Power, Sensors by Liam Critchley

The electrical properties of both piezoelectric and piezoresistive materials change when subjected to mechanical deformation. Here, we show how and why these electrical changes are due to changes within the crystal structure at the atomic level and the chemistry involved with these changes.
