The piezoelectric effect involves generating voltage through mechanical stress. This phenomenon occurs in non-centrosymmetric materials, where ion displacement alters the electric dipole moment.

Piezoelectric crystals are a class of materials that exhibit a unique property called piezoelectricity. These crystals generate an electrical charge when subjected to mechanical stress or strain, and ...
