piezo ceramics

Piezoelectric ceramics are specially designed materials that can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. They contain tiny crystal structures that respond to pressure, vibration, or strain by generating an electric charge, and when electricity is applied, they change shape slightly. This dual ability makes them useful in devices like ultrasound scanners, microphones, and precision actuators. They are durable, reliable, and can operate in various environments, making them essential components in numerous sensing and energy-harvesting applications.
