Jacques Curie (29 October 1855 – 19 February 1941) was a French physicist and professor of mineralogy at the University of Montpellier. Along with his younger brother, Pierre Curie, he studied pyroelectricity in the 1880s, leading to their discovery of some of the mechanisms behind piezoelectricity.

Oct 29, 2021 · The French physicist, Jacques Curie, born on 29 October 1855, is remembered today for his discovery of piezoelectricity. Curie and his younger brother, Pierre, first demonstrated the piezoelectric effect in 1880, but more than a century passed before it began to have any practical applications.
Nobel Prize Winner Scientist. Pierre Curie (1859-1906) was a French physicist and winner of the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics. Curie was born in Paris on May 15, 1859.
