Nanoscale Pyroelectric Hybrid Materials Undergoing Structural Phase Transition

Abstract

The low pyroelectric coefficient of most natural pyroelectric materials is one major bottleneckin developing high-performance uncooled pyroelectric sensing and thermal energy convertingdevices. In general, there are three major contributions to the pyroelectric coefficient: spontaneouspolarization, piezoelectric polarization, and flexoelectric polarization.
