Piezoelectric materials or piezoelectrics are the materials that can produce electric energy when mechanical stress is applied on them. There are two broad categories of piezoelectric materials. First category includes piezoelectric materials that exist in nature and the second category comprises man-made or synthetic materials. Quartz, Rochelle salt, topaz, and tourmaline-group minerals are a few examples of naturally-existing piezoelectrics ...

This book provides an illustrative elucidation on the functioning and applications of piezoelectric transducers. A piezoelectric transducer transforms electric signals into mechanical vibrations or vice versa by using the morphological alteration of a crystal which occurs on voltage application, or conversely by monitoring the voltage produced by a pressure applied on a crystal. This book describes state of the art research and advanced outcom...
