3D Sound Systems Using Groundbreaking Piezoelectric Springs
Piezoelectric materials such as quartz are used in digital watches and computers to produce stable vibrations at high frequencies. Polycrystaline ceramics, such as PZT (lead zirconate titanate), can be made to mimic the behaviour of these natural monocrystaline materials by polarising the crystals within the ceramic. This is done by applying an... view more... (1999-11-29)
