Two-dimensional piezoelectric material forms basis of world's thinnest electric generator

Gizmag: Researchers from Columbia University and the Georgia Institute of Technology are laying claim to having observed piezoelectricity in an atomically thin material for the first time. The effect was demonstrated in the world's thinnest electric generator made from a two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) material, which had previously been predicted to exhibit such properties...
