Piezoelectricity - Wikipedia
Piezoelectric bodies can be electrically poled in either a positive or negative reference across each axis using an electric field. Once the unit body with dimensions (x, y, z) is poled, it will either expand or contract depending on the amplitude and direction of poling along each axis.

Piezoelectricity - How does it work? | What is it used for?
Normally, piezoelectric crystals are electrically neutral: the atoms inside them may not be symmetrically arranged, but their electrical charges are perfectly balanced: a positive charge in one place cancels out a negative charge nearby.

Basics of the Piezoelectric Effect | How Piezoelectric Transducers Work
Some materials are naturally piezoelectric, like quartz. Others, like certain ceramics, can be made piezoelectric through a process called polarization. The amount of electricity generated is proportional to the amount of pressure applied. This is why they are used in precision instruments.
