Abstract
A simplified photopyroelectric (PPE) configuration that allows the simultaneous determination of the temperature dependent thermal and pyroelectric parameters of pyroelectric materials is described. The thermal parameters (thermal diffusivity, conductivity, effusivity and volumic specific heat) are obtained from the analysis of the phase of the complex photopyroelectric (PPE) signal generated from the pyroelectric sample itself and measured for two different modulation frequencies. The pyroelectric coefficient is obtained from the amplitude of the signal. Experimental results on thermal and pyroelectric parameters of LiTaO3 single crystal in the 25°C-70°C temperature range are reported.
