My apologies in advance for ignorant questions.
Are there any nanomaterials that exhibit piezoelectric properties ? Can they be engineered to take energy from surface waves at interfacial boundries ? I only ask after seeing the recent article on piezielectric vibration " harvesters " on the Physorg fron page lead me to wonder why this technology has not been shrunk further ? Or is it such a small amount of energy in most cases it's overlooked ?
Is there still plenty of room at the bottom ?
