“…Composite materials are also attracting interest in an effort to combine high-activity ceramic ferroelectrics with a exible and low permittivity matrix; 45 these have been examined for pyroelectric detectors but the 'composite' approach certainly offer avenues for creating interesting materials for harvesting applications. 14,88 The Ashby method can be used to graphically represent the performance of pyroelectric materials. In Fig.…”

This review covers energy harvesting technologies associated with pyroelectric materials and systems. Such materials have the potential to generate electrical power from thermal fluctuations and is a less well explored form of thermal energy harvesting than thermoelectric systems. The pyroelectric effect and potential thermal and electric field cycles for energy harvesting are explored. Materials of interest are discussed and pyroelectric architectures and systems that can be employed to improve device performance, such as frequency and power level, are described. In addition to the solid materials employed, the appropriate pyroelectric harvesting circuits to condition and store the electrical power are discussed.
