Very large charges are obtained from the light contact of two crystal faces of quartz with each other, anXcut face being positive with respect to aZcut. The effect is not piezoelectric in origin, since it does not reverse when anX_ face is used instead of an X+. The not inconsiderable charges obtained using vitreous silica may be due to patches of incipient crystallization. The tendency of well-cleaned quartz and silica surfaces to adhere seems not to affect the charging, and the adhesion is not electrical in origin. It is unlikely that electrostatic forces ever contribute appreciably to the force of friction.
