quite solid‚ neither is it a liquid. Liquid crystals are another important intermediate phase which exhibits features from both the solid and the fluid state. Liquid crystals have the ordering properties of solids but they flow like liquids. Liquid crystalline materials have been observed for over a century but were not recognized as such until 1880s. In 1888‚ Friedrich Reinitzer (picture) is credited for the first systematic description of the liquid crystal phase and reported his observations when

PIEZOELECTRICITY AND APPLICATIONS Piezoelectricity is the ability of some materials such as crystals and certain ceramics‚ to generate an electric potential in response to applied mechanical stress or heat. If the piezo crystals are not short-circuited‚ the applied charge induces a voltage across the material. The word Piezo is derived from the Greek “Piezein”‚ which means to squeeze or press. The piezo material exhibits both “Direct piezo electric effect” as well as ‘Converse piezo electric
