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 ...

The term piezo is derived from a Greek word that means to squeeze, press, or push; it’s a fitting moniker for Luca Mucci, a rising Italian producer and DJ making propulsive, kinetic club music that ...

Japanese scientists have developed a piezoelectric-photovoltaic cell with potential applications in indoor environments. They fabricated it on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate film with ...

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 ...

The piezoelectric effect is an extraordinarily useful and versatile phenomenon which engineers have adapted to countless transducer applications. In some of these, the applied voltage is transformed ...

Researchers are making fresh progress in piezoelectric generation, a technology that converts mechanical movement such as pressure, vibration, ...

Piezo-ceramic PZT fibres are drawn using a textile spinning method which produces fibres with standard diameters of 105 μm, 250 μm and 800 μm and with typical lengths of 75 and 150 mm. Piezo-composite ...

To address these needs, PI, a global leader in precision motion control and nanopositioning, announces fast delivery of its PIHera series of XY piezo flexure nanopositioners with XY travel ranges ...
