Abstract
The pyroelectric response dependence of direct energy conversion on thermal cycling, conditions has been studied using PZT (97/3) plates. A comparison has been made between different thermal cycles resulting in symmetric or a symmetric voltage outputs. We have found that the latter give better result s.
