I know all about the piezoelectric effect but I've read something and I'm curious about this... Can a quartz crystal really convert solar energy into electrical energy??
quartz has conchoidal fracture like when you throw a stone in a lake
Quartz typically breaks in an uneven fracture, which is just an uneven and haphazard break. It can also break in a conchoidal fracture, which is a curved break that resembles broken glass.
