Abstract

Scaling effects of low-dimensional relaxor ferroelectric single crystals have induced large delocalization of domain switching, leading to a dramatic increase in pyro-electric performances by 2-5.5 times, and promoting the detectivity of fabricated pyroelectric detectors to an international leading level of 2.21 × 10(9) cmHz(1/2) /W at 10 Hz, 4 times higher than that of commercial LiTaO3 -based detectors.
