Piezo discs have been around since the 1970s, and such cheap (and easy-to-handle) discs are widely used by avid electronic hobbyists and experimenting musicians all over the world. A piezo disk ...

Electromagnetic motors and drivers are have been optimized for more than 100 years. They can be found applications from toys to aerospace systems. With all their advantages, there are limitations such ...

Unlike other microphones, a contact microphone makes you look at the world in a different way. At the heart of the contact mic described here is a ceramic piezo-disc, which can be mounted with ...

Why dual-source harvesting offers benefits for powering implantable devices. How the dual-source harvester was constructed, along with its operating principles. The results achieved with this device ...

A research team led by The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed a microprinter that can print piezoelectric films 100 times faster for the production of ...

Piezo elements are electromechanical transducers that convert mechanical forces (pressure, tensile stress or acceleration) into voltages. The inverse piezoelectric effect, precisely the opposite, ...
