Virus‐Based Pyroelectricity

Advanced Materials, 2023
AbstractThe first observation of heat‐induced electrical potential generation on a virus and its detection through pyroelectricity are presented. Specifically, the authors investigate the pyroelectric properties of the M13 phage, which possesses inherent dipole structures derived from the noncentrosymmetric arrangement of the major coat protein (pVIII)

Theory of piezoelectricity, electrostriction, and pyroelectricity in molecular crystals

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Physics, 2010
A microscopic theory is presented for piezoelectricity, electrostriction, and pyroelectricity in molecular crystals. The required coefficients are derived by combining a theoretical treatment of the dependence of molecular dipole moments on molecular ...

The Contribution of Pyroelectricity of AgI Crystals to Ice Nucleation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie - International Edition, 2018
The pyroelectricity of AgI crystals strongly affects the icing temperature of super-cooled water, as disentangled from that of epitaxy. This deduction was achieved by the design of polar crystalline ceramic pellets of AgI, with experimentally determined ...

Pyroelectric Effect in PTS

Physica Status Solidi (a), 1978
Pyroelectricity is observed and measured in poly-2,4-hexadiyne-1,6-diol bis(p-toluene sulphonate), (abbreviated PTS), between 76 and 300 K. PTS is claimed to be monoclinic and to belong to the space group P21/c, i.e. it should have a center of symmetry, so that the observation of pyroelectricity is in conflict with the structure determination.

Equivalent pyroelectric coefficient of a pyroelectric bimorph structure

Journal of Applied Physics, 2000
A detailed formula for the equivalent pyroelectric coefficient of a bimorph structure acting as a pyroelectric detector was deduced. It is shown that electric fields occur in the structure when it is subjected to a temperature variation, due to the unequal charges generated by the two components.

Pyroelectric and Electrocaloric Materials

J. Mater. Chem. C, 2013
Both the pyroelectric and electrocaloric effects originate from the cross-coupling between polarization and temperature in insulating dielectrics. Although both effects have been studied for many decades for various applications and large pyroelectric effect has been observed in many polar-dielectrics, it is only very recently that a large ...

Pyroelectricity of Water Ice

The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2008
Water ice usually is thought to have zero pyroelectricity by symmetry. However, biasing it with ions breaks the symmetry because of the induced partial dipole alignment. This unmasks a large pyroelectricity. Ions were soft-landed upon 1 mum films of water ice at temperatures greater than 160 K. When cooled below 140-150 K, the dipole alignment locks in.

More power to pyroelectrics

Nature Materials, 2018
Using a thin-film geometry and electric-field-driven enhancement of pyroelectric response, a relaxor ferroelectric is shown to display superior power densities for thermal harvesting.

Systematic Study of Pyroelectricity. Ferroelectricity and Pyroelectricity in the Perovskites

1975
Abstract : The relation between ferroelectricity and pyroelectricity in the perovskites is explored using Devonshire's phenomenological theory of ferroelectricity and a new microscopic theory obtained by generalizing the conventional molecular field theory.

Pyroelectrical Thermal Analysis, Pyroelectrical Microscopy, and Pyroelectrical Depth Profiling of Poled Polymer Films

Organic Thin Films for Photonic Applications, 1993
Second-order nonlinear optical polymers must be poled in order to achieve the required non-centrosymmetry. Periodically poled materials are required for phase-matched operation of polarization converters1 and parametric devices2. For second-harmonic generation with modes of different order1, three-dimensionally (3-D) poled patterns are needed to ...
