Piroelectricity is the ability of certain materials to generate an electric charge when they experience a change in temperature. This phenomenon occurs in materials that exhibit spontaneous electric polarization and can be observed when the material is heated or cooled. Piroelectric materials are commonly used in sensors, infrared detectors, and actuators.
