Thank you so much for your help, I would have never understood this without learning from you, thank you.

 

I just ran into something and really wanted to know about it, I enjoy working on cars as a hobby and they have something called a lambda sensor, this tells the car computer system how much oxygen is in the exhaust system, now I was researching smart materials and ran into something called peizoelectric materials, the lambda sensors on the cars used ziconium dioxide, this material reacts to the oxygen creating a voltage, would this also be classified as a peizoelectricl material?

 

Sorry I would have asked this question on yahoo but I have reached my daily limit and was wondering if you would know about this.

 

Thank you.

I'm not really familiar with piezoelectrics. Feel free to make a thread on it in the Engineering forum though and I'm sure someone else will be able to help.

Its ok, it was just a question I have been wondering about since I have seen peizo materials, I will make a thread on the engineering forum, thank you for your help.
