We investigated the pyroelectric properties of < 001 >, < 110 >, and < 111 >-oriented Mn doped 94.6Na(0.5)Bi(0.5)TiO(3)-5.4BaTiO(3) (94.6NBT-5.4BT) crystals. Among the above three crystallographic orientations, the < 111 >-oriented crystals possess the highest pyroelectric coefficients and the largest figures of merit. At 20 degrees C, the values of p, F-v, and F-d reach as high as 5.88 x 10(-4) C/m(2) K, 29.8 mu Pa-1/2, and 0.08 m(2)/C for < 111 >-oriented crystals, respectively, which are superior to other lead-free ferroelectric materials. The crystals also demonstrate a high depolarization temperature and relatively stable thermal pyroelectric property. These results indicate the potential of Mn-doped 94.6NBT-5.4BT crystals for lead-free infrared pyroelectric detectors. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
