Grandma might have called her catalog her crystal, but not all etched glass is alike. At first glance, it can be difficult to tell true crystal from cut glass. Follow along for our best tips on how to ...
Piezoelectric behavior requires a crystal to have a polar bond, where some atoms hold onto their electrons more tightly than others. They also must lack inversion symmetry, that is they are not ...
It seems the quartz itself might be the answer. Quartz is a piezoelectric crystal: when it is squeezed or its shape is mechanically distorted in some way, it develops a voltage. The electric field ...
They propose that an earthquake-triggered piezoelectric effect essentially ... an electrical potential—or voltage—across the crystal that is directly proportional to the applied mechanical ...
