Abstract
- Abstract: Pyroelectric properties in alternating hemicyanine (DAEP)/nitrogencrown (NC) Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) films and effects of incorporating barium cations on pyroelectric behaviors have been investigated. Its pyroelectric coefficient measured is found to be 58μCm−2 K−1at 300K. Their dielectric properties have been measured and used to determine the figures of merit in thermal devices. Relative permittivity (ɛ r) and dielectric loss values (tan δ) of pyroelectric films (in the range of 1–100KHz) are found to be 2.34–1.96 and 0.08–0.04, respectively. These data give a maximum pyroelectric figure of merit of 150μCm−2 K−1 in the alternating LB films incorporating barium ions. The effects of different deposition on pyroelectric properties are also discussed in this paper. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
