The pyroelectric property of $Pb_{0.9}La$_{0.1}TiO_3$ceramics in a range of 1.3-4.1$\mu\textrm{m}$, fabricated by conventional solid sintering, was investigated as a function of poling field. The pyroelectric of the 4.1$\mu\textrm{m}$ of $Pb_{0.9}La$_{0.1}TiO_3$ceramics is higher than that of the 1.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 1.7$\mu\textrm{m}$ of $Pb_{0.9}La$_{0.1}TiO_3$ceramics at a low poling field and the pyroelectric coefficient is 25nC/$\textrm{cm}^2$K at a 4kV/mm poling field in every grain size. In order to explain this phenomenon, the intrinsic and extrinsic effects in view of the definition of the pyroelectric coefficient are introduced. The intrinsic and extrinsic effects on the pyroelectric property were investigated by measuring the tetragonal ratio and the $I_{002}$ with temperature with high temperature X-ray diffractometer. The change of spontaneous polarization and the $90^{\circ}$domain wall motion with temperature in the 1.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 4.2$\mu\textrm{m}$ of $Pb_{0.9}La$_{0.1}TiO_3$ceramics have no effects on the pyroelectric coefficient. In our study, it can be seen that the pyroelectric coefficient is related to the quantity of $180^{\circ}$domain switching after poling treatment.

The sintering behavior of La-modified PbTiO3 ceramics was investigated in order to improve the poor sinterability of PbTiO3. Addition of La improved the sinterability. It was confirmed that this improvement was due to the decrease in tetragonality ratio c/a of crystal lattice. The variations of dielectric constant and pyroelectric coefficient were measured with temperature. It was observed that with the increase of La content, Curie temperature decreased and dielectric constant at room temperature increased. La-modified PbTiO3 ceramics had smaller pyroelectric figure of merits than those of pyroelectric materials in use. The effects of grain size on dielectric and pyroelectric properties were also investigated. The change of grain size had effect on maximum dielectric constant and pyroelectric coefficient, but is had little effect on pyroelectric figure of merit at room temperature. The closer examination near ferro-paraelectric phase transition temperature revealed that the behavior of phase transition approached a more relaxor character with the increase of La content and the decrease of grain size.

0-3 PbTiO$_3$/P(VDF/TrFE) nanocomposite thin films for passive pyroelectric infrared sensors were fabricated by a two-step spin coating technique. 65wt% VDF and 35 wt% TrFE was formed into a P(VDF/TrFE) powder. Nano size PbTiO$_3$ powder was used. 0-3 connectivity of PbTiO$_3$/P(VDF/TrFE) composite film was successfully achieved and observed using SEM photography. The dielectric constant and pyroelectric coefficient were measured and compared with P(VDF/TrFE). A very low dielectric constant (13.48 at 1KHz and sufficiently high pyroelectric coefficient (3.101 nC/$\textrm{cm}^2$ㆍk at 5$0^{\circ}C$) were measured. This nanocomposite can be used for a new pyroelectric infrared sensor to achieve better performance.

The pyroelectricity of poly(vinylidenefluoride) films prepared by varying the draw ratio and the poling field was investigated. As the draw ratio and the electric field on poling of the drawn samples increased, so did the pyroelectric coefficient. But the effect of electric field on the pyroelectricity was greater than that of draw ratio. The pyroelectric and piezoelectric activities could be explained by the polarization using the thermally stimulated current. The relation between pyroelectric coefficient and piezoelectric stress constant showed a good linearity.

In this study, the effect of Mn $O_2$ additive on the electrical characteristics of PZN-PSS-PZT Pyroelectric materials for the fire detactor was studies. PZT ceramics used this experimental is 4 composite system $[$Pb(Z $n_{1}$3/ N $b_{2}$3/) $O_3$＋Pb(S $n_{1}$3/ S $b_{2}$3/) $O_3$＋PbTi $O_3$＋PbZr $O_3$$]$The dielectric constants and dissipation factors decreases as to Mn $O_2$ concentration increases. At the Mn $O_2$ 0.5($\omega$t%), Pyroelectric coefficient shows 8(10$^{-8C}$$\textrm{cm}^2$$^{\circ}C$) which have the highst value among other additive contents. It is found that output voltage shows maximum peck at Mn $O_2$0.7($\omega$t％) is associated with the higher pyroelectric coefficient and Lowered dielectric constant.t.

The modulated frequency dependence on the pyroelectric properties of LiTaO$_3$ single crystal was investigated by the dynamic method. The pyroelectric coefficient of LiTaO$_3$ single crystal was 2.1${\times}$$10^{-8}$/$\textrm{cm}^2$ㆍK. and figure of merits for the responsivity and the detectivity were 1.31${\times}$$10^{-10}$Cㆍcm/J and 1.47${\times}$$10^{-8}$C\ulcornercm/J. respectively. The voltage responsivity corresponded with the pyroelectric voltage exhibited the highest value as about 165V /W at 4Hz and then was in inverse proportion to the frequency over 20Hz. The noise equivalent power and the detectivity at 4Hz were 8.4${\times}$$10^{-9}$ W/Hz$^{1}$2/ and 2.2${\times}$$10^{7}$ cmㆍHz$^{1}$2//W, respectively. Therefore, we could found that LiTaO$_3$ single crystal shows a excellent pyroelectric properties in low frequency region for the human body detection.tection.

A thick 25 ${\mu}m$ thickness poled P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor has been fabricated and then thin 1.6 ${\mu}m$ thickness P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor has been fabricated also. These thick and thin P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor was mounted in TO-5 housing to detect infrared light of 5.5 ~ 14 ${\mu}m$ wavelength for human body detecting with each other. The noise output voltage of the thick P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor were 380 mV and NEP(noise equivalent power) is $3.95{\times}10^{-7}$ W which is the similar value with the commercial pyroelectric infrared ray sensor using ceramic materials as a sensing material. The NEP and specific detectivity $D^*$ of the thin P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor were $2.13{\times}10^{-8}$ W and $9.37{\times}106$ cm/W under emission energy of 13 ${\mu}W/cm^2$ respectively. These result caused by lower thermal diffusion coefficient of a thin 1.6 ${\mu}m$ thickness PVDF/TrFE film than the thick 25 ${\mu}m$ thickness poled P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor.

Pyroelectric and dielectric properties of modified PZT thin film and bulk ceramics were studied. In case of bulk specimens were prepared by conventional ceramic process and thin films with same composition and (111) preferred orientation were prepared by the sol-gel process. Their crystal structure, pyroelectric and dielectric properties were investigated after poling at $150^{\circ}C$ for 30 min for bulk ceramics and no poling treatment, respectively. Dielectric constants and losses of bulk and thin film were 600, 875 and 0.028, 0.025, respectively. Pyroelectric coefficients obtained were $50nC/cm^2K$ and $30nC/cm^2K$, respectively.

In Pb1-xLax(Zry, Tiz)1-x/4O3 system, it selects the composition 7/65/35 (x=7, y=65, z=35) that was reported to have eminent Pyroelectric properties, and that is sintered with PbZrO3＋0.3wt.% PbO2 atmosphere powder. From the sintered ceramic and Poly Vinyl Alcohol, the thin wafers are fabricated with 0-3connectivity, and they are researched in Pyroelectric properties and the others according to volume ratio between ceramic and polymer. It was possible to fabricate the film containing ceramic up to 80vol% in PVA polymer. The increment of PLZT ceramic volume fraction improve the pyroelectric coefficient of the composite. On Pyroelectric coefficient and the figure of merit, a little inflection caused by glass point(Tg) of PVA appeared. The degree of inflection is proportioned to the amount of PVA.
