Vf. Kosorotov et al., POWER SENSORS, BASED ON THE TERTIARY PYRO ELECTRIC EFFECT, COMBINED WITH EXIT WINDOWS OF CO AND CO2-LASERS, Kvantovaa elektronika, 21(6), 1994, pp. 588-590
A theoretical investigation is reported of the possibility of the mani
festation of the tertiary pyroelectric effect as a result of inhomogen
eous heating of cubic crystals belonging to the class 43mBAR. Detectio
n of this pyroelectric effect is reported. The effect was used to cons
truct transmission-type power sensors made of ZnSe crystals, which als
o functioned as exit windows in pulsed CO and CO2 lasers.
