  • Abstract:
  • This article presents the general idea of Piezoelectric Effect in certain materials to generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress.One of the distinctive characteristics of the piezo effect is that it's reversible, that means that materials exhibiting the direct piezo effect (the generation of electricity once stress is applied) additionally exhibit the converse piezo effect (the generation of stress once an electrical field is applied) When electricity material is placed beneath mechanical stress, a shifting of the positive and electric charge centers within the material takes place, that then leads to an external electrical field. once reversed, an outer electrical field either stretches or compresses the piezoelectric material.The piezo effect is extremely helpful at intervals several applications that involve the assembly and detection of sound, generation of high voltages, electronic frequency generation, microbalances, and extremist fine focusing of optical assemblies. it's additionally the idea of variety of scientific instrumental techniques with atomic resolution, like scanning probe microscopes (STM, AFM, etc). The piezo effect additionally has its use in additional mundane applications in addition, like acting because the ignition supply for coffin nail lighters
