Lead titanate ceramics, LiTaO3 single crystals, etc. have a pyroelectric effect. This pyroelectric effect is used to detect charges generated on the surface of the pyroelectric body 2 in response to infrared energy incident on the pyroelectric body, thereby detecting the infrared energy. However, the above-mentioned pyroelectric material has a low absorption efficiency of infrared rays, and in order to increase the absorption efficiency, measures have been taken such as attaching a film of platinum black or nickel-chromium alloy, etc., which has a high infrared absorption coefficient Q, to the surface of the pyroelectric material. ing.

As shown in Fig. 2, a thermal electrode 2 made of a nickel-chromium alloy is attached to the energy incident surface of the pyroelectric cable 1, and an electrode 4 made of aluminum that reflects the incident energy is attached to the opposite surface. was.

In such a conventional example, in the case of the example shown in FIG. Even if the thickness of the film is modified, only about 70 to 80% of the incident energy can be used for detection, and even in the case of the example shown in Figure 2, the aluminum thermal electrode 4 blocks the infrared rays passing through. - Even with vanes, only about 60 to 76% of the incident energy could be used for detection, resulting in low detection sensitivity.

By using a pyroelectric material having an electrode structure as in the present invention, it is possible to utilize approximately 75 to 85 times the incident energy, and the sensitivity can be increased by approximately 5 to 20% compared to the conventional method. In particular, when the thickness of the pyroelectric material is reduced in order to lower the thermal time constant of the pyroelectric material, the amount of energy transmitted through the pyroelectric material increases, so the present invention is very effective. In addition, the electrode structure can be easily formed by vapor deposition, providing a pyroelectric device that is highly mass-producible.
