【Abstract】 The current status of pyroelectric infrared detectors is presented.The main advances and achievements we obtained in new pyroelectric materials and infrared detectors are described in detail. Relaxation ferroelectric crystal is a new material with excellent piezoelectric property.It is found that it also has excellent pyroelectric property.The PMNT crystal we grew has a pyroelectric coefficient greater than 15.3×10^-4 cm^-2·K^-1.The dielectric loss of Mn-PMNT is reduced to 0.0005.It has the optimal detection value up to 40.2×10^-5 Pa^-1/2.The PIMNT crystal with a high Curie temperature point has the Curie temperature greater than 180℃.The infrared detector made of this crystal is much better than the detector made of traditional pyroelectric materials such as LiTaO₃ in performance.It has the detectivity of 1.07×10⁹ cm·Hz^-1/2·W^-1.This shows that the infrared detectors made of this new relaxation ferroelectric crystal has a wide application area.更多还原
