Ice Flexoelectricity Explained: Link to Lightning and Future Devices
Scientists at ICN2, Xi’an Jiaotong and Stony Brook showed that bending ice creates electric charge and found a surface ferroelectric layer below –113 °C (160 K). Read more: getnews.me/ice-flexoelectricity-exp... #flexoelectricity #ice #lightning
Ice Exhibits Flexoelectric Charge Generation When Bent or Twisted
Frozen water generates electric charge when bent, voltage rises with curvature and persists up to ice’s melting point. Researchers saw a reversible surface layer near –171 °F. Read more: getnews.me/ice-exhibits-flexoelectr... #flexoelectricity #ice
