A highly sensitive magnetoelectric sensor for the detection of biomagnetic signals combined with the piezotronic effect is a promising path to increase the signal detection limit. Herein, the results of three ZnO microrods examined by nano X-ray diffraction and current–voltage curves to investigate the crystalline structure influence on the Schottky contact properties are presented. The measurements reveal different strain distributions for the three rods and that these are linked with the electrical properties, showing that the crystalline quality has a direct influence on the Schottky contact properties. An analytical model is created to determine the influence of the stress. Although rotation of the strain orientation changes the strain appearance in the measurement, it does not affect the Schottky contact properties.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1002/adem.202100201} (DOI).
