Preface
Piezoelectric or, more generally, electroelastic materials, exhibit electrome-
chanical coupling. They experience mechanical deformations when placed in
an electric field and e electrically polarized under mechanical loads.
These materials have been used to make various electromechanical devices.
Examples include transducers for converting electric energy to mechanical
energy or vice versa, resonators and filters for munication and time-
keeping, and sensors for information collection.
Piezoelectricity has been a steadily growing field for more than a century,
progressed mainly by researchers from app
