Today, examples of the inverse piezoelectric effect can be seen more readily.
The related piezoelectric effect occurs only in a particular class of dielectrics.
Crystals with an inversion center cannot display certain properties, such as the piezoelectric effect.
Epson began research into using the piezoelectric effect for printing in the late 1970s.
The piezoelectric effect is generally thought to act as a biological force sensor.
For early pick-up devices using the piezoelectric effect, see phonograph.
Therefore, if the sample is such a material, an additional piezoelectric effect must be considered when analyzing the signal.
For example, all of these products depend on the piezoelectric effect:
Surface acoustic wave technology takes advantage of the piezoelectric effect in its operation.
This phenomenon, known as the piezoelectric effect, can send electrical signals to animals.
