In recent times, through the advancement of science and industry, crystals have been found to have both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties. This means that the polarities of the crystal will change when subjected to pressure or heat (even body heat from the hands). This radiates energy from the crystal due to this reversal of polarities. It provides the transfer, storage and transformation of energy.
