| Research Abstract |
This project was aimed to develop practically usable pyroelectric device materials for the low temperature waist heat harvesting. Research focus was to develop modified BTO which has low Curie temperature, at about 130 deg., and temperature dependent polarization, P(T). The first principle band calculation was repeated to find suitable combination of ionic arrangement and crystal structure suitable for the purpose. Following itemized knowledges were obtained. 1.Partial substitution of Y or Ca for Ba caused appreciable increase in Curie temperature. for 5 deg. was due to the substitution of Y or Ca. 2.The polarization, P, also increased by the partial substitution. 3. Significant increase in the grain sizes and pyroelectric coefficient were recorded for the 30% Ca sample. 4. The d-bands extended from Ti, Zr or Nb ion situated just below Fermi level have very close relationship between the pyroelectric characteristics of above three materials.
