Abstract
The relationships between the optimum cut direction and various parameters have been analysed. The dielectric constant, pyroelectric coefficient and figure of merit were measured with temperature change on different directions of ADTGSP crystal. The results show that the pyroelectric voltage response is significantly improved by using cuts at oblique angles to the pyroelectric axis.Keywords
