Electrical stimulation can enhance cell proliferation, differentiation and alignment under mechanical loading, Khanbareh explained. Piezoelectric scaffold materials can achieve this kind of ...

This simple STM setup utilises a piezoelectric actuator constructed by deliberately cutting a piezo speaker into four quadrants. With individual drive wires attached to the four quadrants.

Piezoelectric crystals are a class of materials that exhibit a unique property called piezoelectricity. These crystals generate an electrical charge when subjected to mechanical stress or strain, and ...

Researchers have developed a technique for growing piezoelectric biomolecular crystals that could eliminate the use of toxic ...

“The piezoelectric theory is interesting because it would help to further concentrate any nanoparticles, but also explain why ...

The composite material is made of cellulose and potassium sodium niobate (KNN) piezo-ceramic particles. The 'scaffold' implants that can be created with it look like small, paper-like tubes ...
