Pyroelectricity (from the Greek pyr, fire, and electricity) is the ability of certain materials to generate a temporary voltage when they are heated or cooled.^[1] The change in temperature modifies the positions of the atoms slightly within the crystal structure, such that the polarization of the material changes. This polarization change gives rise to a voltage across the crystal. If the temperature stays constant at its new value, the pyroelectric voltage gradually disappears due to leakage current (the leakage can be due to electrons moving through the crystal, ions moving through the air, current leaking through a voltmeter attached across the crystal, etc.).^[1]^[2]

Pyroelectricity should not be confused with thermoelectricity: In a typical demonstration of pyroelectricity, the whole crystal is changed from one temperature to another, and the result is a temporary voltage across the crystal. In a typical demonstration of thermoelectricity, one part of the device is kept at one temperature and the other part at a different temperature, and the result is a permanent voltage across the device as long as there is a temperature difference.

Explanation

Pyroelectricity can be visualized as one side of a triangle, where each corner represents energy states in the crystal: kinetic, electrical and thermal energy. The side between electrical and thermal corners represents the pyroelectric effect and produces no kinetic energy. The side between kinetic and electrical corners represents the piezoelectric effect and produces no heat.

Although artificial pyroelectric materials have been engineered, the effect was first discovered in minerals such as tourmaline. The pyroelectric effect is also present in both bone and tendon.

Pyroelectric charge in minerals develops on the opposite faces of asymmetric crystals. The direction in which the propagation of the charge tends toward is usually constant throughout a pyroelectric material, but in some materials this direction can be changed by a nearby electric field. These materials are said to exhibit ferroelectricity. All pyroelectric materials are also piezoelectric, the two properties being closely related. However, note that some piezoelectric materials have a crystal symmetry that does not allow pyroelectricity.

Very small changes in temperature can produce an electric potential due to a materials' pyroelectricity. Passive infrared sensors are often designed around pyroelectric materials, as the heat of a human or animal from several feet away is enough to generate a difference in charge.

History

The first reference to the pyroelectric effect is in writings by Theophrastus in 314 BC, who noted that lyngourion could attract sawdust or bits of straw.^[3] Tourmaline's properties were rediscovered in 1707 by Johann Georg Schmidt, who noted that the stone attracted only hot ashes, not cold ones.^[4] In 1717 Louis Lemery noticed, as Schmidt had, that small scraps of non-conducting material were first attracted to tourmaline, but then repelled by it once they contacted the stone.^[5] In 1747 Linnaeus first related the phenomenon to electricity (he called tourmaline Lapidem Electricum, "the electric stone"),^[6] although this was not proven until 1756 by Franz Ulrich Theodor Aepinus.^[7] Potter or Ceramic Artist Truman Bedell from Rexton, has interests which include ceramics, best property developers in singapore developers in singapore and scrabble. Was especially enthused after visiting Alejandro de Humboldt National Park.

Research in pyroelectricity became more sophisticated in the 19th century. In 1824 Sir David Brewster gave the effect the name it has today.^[8] Both William Thomson in 1878^[9] and Woldemar Voigt in 1897^[10] helped develop a theory for the processes behind pyroelectricity. Pierre Curie and his brother, Jacques Curie, studied pyroelectricity in the 1880s, leading to their discovery of some of the mechanisms behind piezoelectricity. Potter or Ceramic Artist Truman Bedell from Rexton, has interests which include ceramics, best property developers in singapore developers in singapore and scrabble. Was especially enthused after visiting Alejandro de Humboldt National Park.

The pyroelectric crystal classes and piezoelectricity

All crystal structures can be divided into 32 crystal classes, according to the number of rotational axes and reflection planes they exhibit that leave the crystal structure unchanged. Of the thirty-two crystal classes, twenty-one are non-centrosymmetric (not having a centre of symmetry). Of these twenty-one, twenty exhibit direct piezoelectricity, the remaining one being the cubic class 432. Ten of these twenty piezoelectric classes are polar, i.e., they possess a spontaneous polarization, having a dipole in their unit cell, and exhibit pyroelectricity. If this dipole can be reversed by the application of an electric field, the material is said to be ferroelectric. Any dielectric material develops a dielectric polarization (electrostatics) when an electric field is applied, but a substance which has such a natural charge separation even in the absence of a field is called a polar material. Whether or not a material is polar is determined solely by its crystal structure. Only 10 of the 32 point groups are polar. All polar crystals are pyroelectric, so the 10 polar crystal classes are sometimes referred to as the pyroelectric classes.

Piezoelectric crystal classes: 1, 2, m, 222, mm2, 4, -4, 422, 4mm, -42m, 3, 32, 3m, 6, -6, 622, 6mm, -62m, 23, -43m

Pyroelectric: 1, 2, m, mm2, 3, 3m, 4, 4mm, 6, 6mm

The property of pyroelectricity is the measured change in net polarization (a vector) proportional to a change in temperature. The total pyroelectric coefficient measured at constant stress is the sum of the pyroelectric coefficients at constant strain (primary pyroelectric effect) and the piezoelectric contribution from thermal expansion (secondary pyroelectric effect). Under normal circumstances, even polar materials do not display a net dipole moment. As a consequence there are no electric dipole equivalents of bar magnets because the intrinsic dipole moment is neutralized by "free" electric charge that builds up on the surface by internal conduction or from the ambient atmosphere. Polar crystals only reveal their nature when perturbed in some fashion that momentarily upsets the balance with the compensating surface charge.

Recent developments

Progress has been made in creating artificial pyroelectric materials, usually in the form of a thin film, out of gallium nitride (Ga N), caesium nitrate (Cs N O₃), polyvinyl fluorides, derivatives of phenylpyridine, and cobalt phthalocyanine. (See pyroelectric crystals.) Lithium tantalate (Li Ta O₃) is a crystal exhibiting both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties, which has been used to create small-scale nuclear fusion ("pyroelectric fusion").^[11]

Mathematical description

The pyroelectric coefficient may be described as the change in the spontaneous polarization vector with temperature:^[12]

p_{i}={\frac {\partial P_{S,i}}{\partial T}}

where p_i (Cm⁻²K⁻¹) is the vector for the pyroelectric coefficient.

Power generation

A pyroelectric can be repeatedly heated and cooled (analogously to a heat engine) to generate usable electrical power. One group calculated that a pyroelectric in an Ericsson cycle could reach 50% of Carnot efficiency,^[13]^[14] while a different study found a material that could in theory reach 84-92% of Carnot efficiency^[15] (these efficiency values are for the pyroelectric itself, ignoring losses from heating and cooling the substrate, other heat-transfer losses, and all other losses elsewhere in the system). Possible advantages of pyroelectric generators for generating electricity (as compared to the conventional heat engine plus electrical generator) include potentially lower operating temperatures, less bulky equipment, and fewer moving parts.^[16] Although a few patents have been filed for such a device,^[17] it does not appear to be anywhere close to commercialization yet.

+[[File:Pyrosensor.jpg|thumb|Pyroelectric sensor]]
+'''Pyroelectricity''' (from the Greek ''pyr'', fire, and [[electricity]]) is the ability of certain materials to generate a temporary [[voltage]]  when they are heated or cooled.<ref name=Webster/> The change in temperature modifies the positions of the atoms slightly  within the [[crystal structure]], such that the [[polarization (electrostatics)|polarization]] of the material changes. This polarization change gives rise to a voltage across the crystal. If the temperature stays constant at its new value, the pyroelectric voltage gradually disappears due to [[Leakage (electronics)|leakage current]] (the leakage can be due to electrons moving through the crystal, ions moving through the air, current leaking through a [[voltmeter]] attached across the crystal, etc.).<ref name=Webster>{{cite book | url = http://books.google.com/books?id=VXQdq0B3tnUC&pg=SA32-PA113 | title = The measurement, instrumentation, and sensors handbook | pages =32–113 | isbn = 978-0-8493-8347-2 | author1 = Webster, John G | year = 1999}}</ref><ref>In this article, the term "voltage" is used in the everyday sense, i.e. what a [[voltmeter]] measures. This is actually the [[electrochemical potential]], not the [[electrostatic potential]] ([[Galvani potential]]).</ref>
+Pyroelectricity should not be confused with [[thermoelectricity]]: In a typical demonstration of pyroelectricity, the whole crystal is changed from one temperature to another, and the result is a temporary voltage across the crystal. In a typical demonstration of thermoelectricity, one part of the device is kept at one temperature and the other part at a different temperature, and the result is a ''permanent'' voltage across the device as long as there is a temperature difference.
+== Explanation ==
+Pyroelectricity can be visualized as one side of a triangle, where each corner represents energy states in the crystal: [[kinetic energy|kinetic]], [[electrical energy|electrical]] and [[thermal energy]]. The side between electrical and thermal corners represents the pyroelectric effect and produces no [[kinetic energy]]. The side between kinetic and electrical corners represents the [[piezoelectric effect]] and produces no [[heat]].
+Although artificial pyroelectric materials have been engineered, the effect was first discovered in minerals such as [[tourmaline]]. The pyroelectric effect is also present in both [[bone]] and [[tendon]].
+Pyroelectric charge in [[mineral]]s develops on the opposite faces of asymmetric crystals. The direction in which the propagation of the charge tends toward is usually constant throughout a pyroelectric material, but in some materials this direction can be changed by a nearby electric field.  These materials are said to exhibit [[ferroelectricity]].  All pyroelectric materials are also [[piezoelectricity|piezoelectric]], the two properties being closely related. However, note that some piezoelectric materials have a crystal symmetry that does not allow pyroelectricity.
+Very small changes in temperature can produce an electric potential due to a materials' pyroelectricity. [[Passive infrared sensor]]s are often designed around pyroelectric materials, as the heat of a human or animal from several feet away is enough to generate a difference in charge.
+== History ==
+The first reference to the pyroelectric effect is in writings by [[Theophrastus]] in 314 BC, who noted that ''lyngourion'' could attract sawdust or bits of straw.<ref>Earle R. Caley and John F.C. Richards, ''Theophrastus:  On Stones'' (Columbus, Ohio:  Ohio State University, 1956), page 51, paragraph 28 of the original text:  "It [''smaragdos''] is remarkable in its powers, and so is the ''lyngourion'' [i.e., lynx-urine stone] … .  It has the power of attraction, just as amber has, and some say that it not only attracts straws and bits of wood, but also copper and iron, if the pieces are thin, as Diokles used to explain."</ref>  [[Tourmaline]]'s properties were rediscovered in 1707 by [[Johann Georg Schmidt (scientist)|Johann Georg Schmidt]], who noted that the stone attracted only hot ashes, not cold ones.<ref>Johann Georg Schmidt, ''Curiöse Speculationes bey Schalflosen Nächten'' [Curious Speculations During Sleepless Nights] (Chemnitz and Leipzig (Germany): Conrad Stössen, 1707), pages 269-270.  An English translation of the relevant passage appears in:  Sidney B. Lang, ''Sourcebook of Pyroelectricity'', vol. 2 (New York, New York:  Gordon and Breach, 1974), [http://books.google.com/books?id=pqjNNDYdBPkC&pg=PA96#v=onepage&q&f=false page 96].</ref>  In 1717  [[Louis Lemery]] noticed, as Schmidt had, that small scraps of non-conducting material were first attracted to tourmaline, but then repelled by it once they contacted the stone.<ref>"Diverse observations de la physique generale," ''Histoire de l'Académie des Sciences'' (1717); [http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k5426516z/f16.image see pages 7-8].</ref>  In 1747 [[Linnaeus]] first related the phenomenon to electricity (he called tourmaline ''Lapidem Electricum'', "the electric stone"),<ref>Carl von Linné ("Linnaeus"), ''Flora Zeylanica: Sistens Plantas Indicas Zeylonae Insulae'' [The Flora of Ceylon:  consisting of Indian plants of the island of Ceylon] (Stockholm ("Holmiae"), Sweden:  Laurentii Salvii, 1747), [http://books.google.com/books?id=f0Y-AAAAcAAJ&pg=PA8#v=onepage&q&f=false page 8].  A translation of the relevant passage appears in Lang (1974), page 103.</ref> although this was not proven until 1756 by [[Franz Ulrich Theodor Aepinus]].<ref>Aepinus (1756) "Memoire concernant quelques nouvelles experiences électriques remarquables" [Memoir concerning some remarkable new electrical experiments], ''Histoire de l'Académie royale des sciences et des belles lettres'' (Berlin), vol. 12, [http://books.google.com/books?id=mZgDAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA105#v=onepage&q&f=false pages 105-121].</ref> {{Citation needed|date=January 2012}}
+Research in pyroelectricity became more sophisticated in the 19th century.  In 1824 [[David Brewster|Sir David Brewster]] gave the effect the name it has today.<ref>{{cite journal| url = http://books.google.de/books?id=dkQEAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA208| pages = 208–215 | first = David | last = Brewster | title = Observations of the pyro-electricity of minerals |journal = The Edinburgh Journal of Science | volume = 1 | year =  1824 }}</ref> Both [[William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin|William Thomson]] in 1878<ref>William Thomson (1878) "On the thermoelastic, thermomagnetic and pyroelectric properties of matter," ''Philosophical Magazine'', series 5, vol. 5, [http://books.google.com/books?id=A5YOAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA4#v=onepage&q&f=false pages 4 - 26].</ref> and [[Woldemar Voigt]] in 1897<ref>W. Voigt (1897) "Versuch zur Bestimmung des wahren specifischen electrischen Momentes eines Turmalins"  (Experiment to determine the true specific electric moment of a tourmaline), ''Annalen der Physik'', vol. 60, [http://books.google.com/books?id=iX0EAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA368#v=onepage&q&f=false pages 368 - 375].</ref> helped develop a theory for the processes behind pyroelectricity. [[Pierre Curie]] and his brother, [[Jacques Curie]], studied pyroelectricity in the 1880s, leading to their discovery of some of the mechanisms behind piezoelectricity. {{Citation needed|date=January 2012}}
+== The pyroelectric crystal classes and piezoelectricity ==
+All [[crystal structures]] can be divided into 32 [[Crystal_system#Crystal classes|crystal classes]], according to the number of [[Rotational symmetry|rotational axes]] and [[mirror plane|reflection planes]] they exhibit that leave the crystal structure unchanged. Of the thirty-two crystal classes, twenty-one are non-centrosymmetric (not having a [[Fixed points of isometry groups in Euclidean space|centre of symmetry]]). Of these twenty-one, twenty exhibit direct [[piezoelectricity]], the remaining one being the cubic class 432. Ten of these twenty piezoelectric classes are polar, i.e., they possess a spontaneous polarization, having a dipole in their unit cell, and exhibit pyroelectricity. If this dipole can be reversed by the application of an electric field, the material is said to be [[ferroelectric]]. Any dielectric material develops a dielectric [[polarization (electrostatics)]] when an electric field is applied, but a substance which has such a natural charge separation even in the absence of a field is called a polar material.  Whether or not a material is polar is determined solely by its crystal structure.  Only 10 of the 32 point groups are polar. All [[polar crystals]] are pyroelectric, so the 10 [[polar crystal classes]] are sometimes referred to as the pyroelectric classes.
+Piezoelectric crystal classes: 1, 2, m, 222, mm2, 4, -4, 422, 4mm, -42m, 3, 32, 3m, 6, -6, 622, 6mm, -62m, 23, -43m
+Pyroelectric: 1, 2, m, mm2, 3, 3m, 4, 4mm, 6, 6mm
+The property of pyroelectricity is the measured change in net polarization (a vector) proportional to a change in temperature.  The total pyroelectric coefficient measured at constant stress is the sum of the pyroelectric coefficients at constant strain (primary pyroelectric effect) and the piezoelectric contribution from thermal expansion (secondary pyroelectric effect). Under normal circumstances,  even polar materials do not display a net dipole moment.  As a consequence there are no electric dipole equivalents of bar magnets because the intrinsic dipole moment is neutralized by "free" electric charge that builds up on the surface by internal conduction or from the ambient atmosphere.  Polar crystals only reveal their nature when perturbed in some fashion that momentarily upsets the balance with the compensating surface charge.
+== Recent developments ==
+Progress has been made in creating artificial pyroelectric materials, usually in the form of a thin film, out of [[gallium nitride]] ([[Gallium|Ga]][[Nitrogen|N]]), [[caesium nitrate]] ([[Caesium|Cs]][[Nitrogen|N]][[Oxygen|O]]<sub>3</sub>), [[polyvinyl fluoride]]s, derivatives of [[phenylpyridine]], and [[cobalt]] [[phthalocyanine]]. (See [[pyroelectric crystal]]s.) [[Lithium tantalate]] ([[Lithium|Li]][[Tantalum|Ta]][[Oxygen|O]]<sub>3</sub>) is a crystal exhibiting both [[piezoelectric]] and pyroelectric properties, which has been used to create small-scale [[nuclear fusion]] ("[[pyroelectric fusion]]").<ref name="NaranjoGimzewski2005">{{cite journal|last1=Naranjo|first1=B.|last2=Gimzewski|first2=J.K.|last3=Putterman|first3=S.|title=Observation of nuclear fusion driven by a pyroelectric crystal|journal=Nature|volume=434|issue=7037|year=2005|pages=1115–1117|issn=0028-0836|doi=10.1038/nature03575|url=http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v434/n7037/suppinfo/nature03575.html}}</ref>

+The pyroelectric coefficient may be described as the change in the spontaneous polarization vector with temperature:<ref>Damjanovic, Dragan, 1998, Ferroelectric, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of ferroelectric thin films and ceramics, ''Rep. Prog. Phys.'' 61, 1267–1324.</ref>

+== Power generation ==
+A pyroelectric can be repeatedly heated and cooled (analogously to a [[heat engine]]) to generate usable electrical power. One group calculated that a pyroelectric in an [[Ericsson cycle]] could reach 50% of [[Carnot efficiency]],<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Sebald | first1 = Gael | last2 = Pruvost | first2 = Sebastien | last3 = Guyomar | first3 = Daniel | title = Energy harvesting based on Ericsson pyroelectric cycles in a relaxor ferroelectric ceramic | journal = Smart Materials and Structures | volume = 17 | pages = 015012 | year = 2008 | doi = 10.1088/0964-1726/17/01/015012 |bibcode = 2008SMaS...17a5012S |url=http://www.ikhebeenvraag.be/mediastorage/FSDocument/135/Pyroelectric+energy+harvesting.pdf}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Sebald | first1 = Gael | last2 = Guyomar | first2 = Daniel | last3 = Agbossou | first3 = Amen | title = On thermoelectric and pyroelectric energy harvesting | journal = Smart Materials and Structures | volume = 18 | pages = 125006 | year = 2009 | doi = 10.1088/0964-1726/18/12/125006 |bibcode = 2009SMaS...18l5006S }}</ref> while a different study found a material that could in theory reach 84-92% of Carnot efficiency<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Olsen | first1 = Randall B. | last2 = Evans | first2 = Diane | title = Pyroelectric energy conversion: Hysteresis loss and temperature sensitivity of a ferroelectric material | journal = Journal of Applied Physics | volume = 54 | pages = 5941 | year = 1983 | doi = 10.1063/1.331769|bibcode = 1983JAP....54.5941O }}</ref> (these efficiency values are for the pyroelectric itself, ignoring losses from heating and cooling the [[thin film|substrate]], other heat-transfer losses, and all other losses elsewhere in the system).
