2 Origin of Piezoelectricity on Langasite

Piezoelectric materials produce polars in the crystal structure and charges on the surface of the crystal, when the crystals are stressed mechanically as shown in Figure 1(a). The surface charges leads to a voltage difference between the two surfaces of the crystal. On the contrary, when the crystals are applied with an electric field, they exhibit mechanical strain or distortion as shown in Figure 1(b).
