12Pyroelectric crystal — Pyroelectric crystals are crystals that generate electricity when heated. It is similar to piezoelectricity.Crystal symmetryCrystal structures can be divided into 32 classes, or point groups, according to the number of rotational axes and… …
13Multiferroics — have been formally defined as materials that exhibit more than one primary ferroic order parameter simultaneously (i.e. in a single phase).[1] The four basic primary ferroic order parameters are ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity… …
14Pyroelectricity — is the ability of certain materials to generate an electrical potential when they are heated or cooled. As a result of this change in temperature, positive and negative charges move to opposite ends through migration (i.e., the material becomes… …
15Energy harvesting — (also known as Power harvesting or energy scavenging ) is the process by which energy is captured and stored. Frequently this term is applied when speaking about small autonomous devices, like those used in sensor networks. A variety of different …

17Méthode de Berlincourt — La méthode de Berlincourt, nommée d après le physicien Don Berlincourt, est une méthode de mesure directe du coefficient piézoélectrique d un matériau. La méthode utilise l effet piézoélectrique direct : elle consiste à mesurer la charge… …
18Quartz crystal microbalance — A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) measures a mass per unit area by measuring the change in frequency of a quartz crystal resonator. The resonance is disturbed by the addition or removal of a small mass due to oxide growth/decay or film… …
19Electron mobility — This article is about the mobility for electrons and holes in metals and semiconductors. For the general concept, see Electrical mobility. In solid state physics, the electron mobility characterizes how quickly an electron can move through a… …
20Nanogenerator — is an energy harvesting device converting the external kinetic energy into an electrical energy based on the energy conversion by nano structured piezoelectric material. Although its definition may include any types of energy harvesting devices… …
