• Pyroelectric energy converter using co-polymer P(VDF-TrFE) and Olsen cycle for waste heat energy harvesting (2010, methodology): “The cycle was developed by Olsen and co-workers between 1978 and 1985 [10,11,15,20,22,23,27,28].”
• Human-tracking systems using pyroelectric infrared detectors (2006, background): “The pyroelectric effect has been known for more than 24 centuries, but a firm understanding of the underlying physics has been developed only in modern times.(3) Detection of human motion has been done by using pyroelectric detectors that are sensitive to changes in heat flux.”
• Pyroelectric energy harvesting using Olsen cycles in purified and porous poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] thin films (2011, background): “This polarization depends strongly on temperature due to the material’s crystallographic structure [23].”
