Abstract
The peak voltage of the response in a pyroelectric sample to ir signals much shorter than the thermal and electronic time constants of the sample is shown to be proportional to the energy absorbed per signal, and independent of load resistance and signal repetition frequency, as long as temperature is far enough from the Curie point. These results were checked experimentally in triglycine sulphate and strontium‐barium niobate.Keywords
