Scientists at IISc have found that by reducing the thickness of the piezoelectric ceramic PZT from 0.7mm to 0.2mm, its ability to deform significantly increases. They also discovered manufacturing ...

Abstract: To achieve high single-step efficiency (SSE), a novel bionic stick-slip piezoelectric actuator inspired by kangaroo’s leg mechanics is proposed in this article. The bionic design ...

Since the arrangement of the amyloid fibril may impact piezoelectric properties, the arrangement of the amyloid fibrils within the films was investigated through imaging at different length scales, ...

film was used as a charge coupling layer between the ZnO NRs and the active channel. When an external mechanical pressure is applied to the ZnO NRs, piezo-induced charges generated within the ZnO NRs ...
