Our bodies are crackling with energy, and our cells make use of that energy using methods honed over billions of years of evolution. However, a new study suggests that cells could possibly be ...

Flexoelectricity is a phenomenon in which a strain gradient in a material induces an electric polarization. It is a coupling between a mechanical strain gradient and an electric polarization in ...

According to a recent study, when regular hexagonal ice is bent or twisted, it can produce electricity. Electric polarisation can be produced by deformed ice crystals due to a phenomenon called ...
