Not exact matches

Now, the M.D. Anderson Chair Professor and mechanical engineering department chairman at the University of Houston Cullen College of Engineering, Pradeep Sharma, and his doctoral student, Matthew Zelisko, in collaboration with scientists at Rice University and University of Washington, have identified one of the thinnest possible piezoelectric materials on the planet — graphene nitride.

Most other atomically thin materials with piezoelectric properties don't maintain their piezoelectricity when stacked, Zelisko said.

The thin and flexible material works on the piezoelectric effect — the idea of converting mechanical stress into electric charges.

The thin and flexible material, which is quite hard to produce at present, works on the piezoelectric effect — the ability of certain materials to convert mechanical stress into electric charges, Phys.orgreports.
