Abstract :
In this work are studied the pyroelectric properties of Pb0.88(Ln)0.08Ti0.98Mn0.02O3 (Ln = La, Sm, Eu) ferroelectric ceramic system. These type of ferroelectric ceramics presents high values in the following characteristics: dielectric constant, Curie temperature, electromechanical anisotropy, and frequencies of operation.. These properties make them useful for applications such as: the detection of infrared radiation, ultrasonic transducers for biomedical applications. The relationship between dielectric constant and temperature measurements as well as pyroelectric measurements using the technique of Byer-Roundy were performed. Values of the pyroelectric coefficient and figure of merit for infrared detector materials were obtained.
