Journal ArticleDOI
Piezoelectric Materials, A Review of Progress
TL;DR: A review of the properties of the more important piezoelectric materials is given in this article, where the authors discuss the basic principles of the phenomena of piezelectricity and elasticity from the standpoint of crystal physics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Impurities on the Growth of Quartz Crystals from Flint and Quartzite
TL;DR: The most successful methods for growing large quartz crystals have employed a hydrothermal technique in which melting-quality quartz is used as the source material for maintaining the supersaturation of the liquid with respect to silica in the vicinity of the growing crystals as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth of large quartz crystals.
TL;DR: Alternative methods employing a temperature gradient, such as Spezia4 used in his pioneer experiments are re-examined, finding them to be unsatisfactory.
