Pyroelectric effect in layered magnetoelectric PZT/Ni–Zn ferrite composites

Аннотация

The electric response of layered 2-2 connectivity magnetoelectric composites to the action of a modulated heat flow, which is detected by a dynamic method, is studied. The kinetics of the pyroelectric response of the composite material to a pulsed thermal action is calculated. The experimental results and calculation data suggest that a modulated heat action induces a signal due to both the pyroelectric and piezoelectric effects. The latter effect is caused by the mechanical interaction of the layers of lead zirconate titanate ceramic and nickel–zinc (Ni–Zn) ferrite.
