Piezoelektriku refers to the piezoelectric effect, a phenomenon observed in certain crystalline materials. When these materials are subjected to mechanical stress, they generate an electric charge. Conversely, when an electric field is applied to them, they deform mechanically. This reciprocal relationship is the essence of piezoelectricity.

The piezoelectric effect is observed in a variety of materials, including natural crystals like quartz and Rochelle salt, as well as synthesized ceramics such as lead zirconate titanate (PZT). The specific crystalline structure of these materials is crucial for exhibiting the effect. In these structures, the positive and negative charge centers are displaced, and applying stress distorts this arrangement, leading to a net electric dipole moment and thus a measurable charge.

The applications of piezoelectricity are widespread and diverse. In sensors, piezoelectric materials convert physical quantities like pressure, acceleration, or vibration into electrical signals. This is utilized in microphones, pressure sensors, and accelerometers. In actuators, the inverse piezoelectric effect is exploited. Applying a voltage causes the material to change shape, enabling precise movements. This is used in inkjet printers, ultrasonic transducers for medical imaging and cleaning, and in some types of fuel injectors. Piezoelectric materials are also found in lighters, where a sudden mechanical impact generates a spark, and in quartz watches, where an oscillating electric field causes a quartz crystal to vibrate at a very precise frequency, acting as a timekeeping element. The study and application of piezoelectricity continue to drive innovation in various technological fields.
