  • Implants
    Publication number: 20070040478
    Abstract: A piezoelectric device is produced by providing a material having a hydroxyapatite (HA) component. The HA component is textured by, for example uniaxial pressing, to impart one of the limiting symmetries ?, ? mm, or ?2. The textured material may then be poled to enhance the piezoelectric properties.
