Piezoelectric MaterialsMEEN 3344Edward L. GaminoSeptember 21, 2009 Types Quartz- first commonly used crystal Lead Zirconate PZT-most common ceramic in use today Rochelle salt Cane sugar Bone Piezoelectric Effect The piezoelectric effect was discovered in 1880 by brothers Jacques and Pierre Curie. They discovered that when a mechanical stress was applied on crystals (such as tourmaline, topaz, quartz, Rochelle salt and cane sugar) electrical charges appeared, and the voltage was proportional to the amount of stress. An everyday application example is a cars airbag sensor. The material det
