Abstract

Thin films of ferroelectric ceramic and epoxy composites with 0-3 connectivity have been produced by dispersing a ceramic powder in a thermosetting epoxy resin. Calcium Modified Lead Titanate [PTCa] powder with grain size of less than 10 micrometers was mixed with an epoxy resin and curing agent and then formed into thin films of approximately 100 micrometers . The pyroelectric behavior of these composites with 50% and 60% volume loading of ceramic is reported in this present work.
