Abstract :
Elasticoluminescence (ESL) is a kind of mechanoluminescence (ML). ESL materials are novel functional materials that can convert elastic deformation energy into visible light directly. Utilizing the materials, novel sensing devices and various applications are now under development. These materials can allow direct viewing of stress distribution.
