Abstract

Thermal properties of PZT detectors were studied in a temperature range from 5 to 50 degrees. The sensitivity of a disk-shaped detector was flat in sensitivity, where as we found an anomalous sensitivity at 44 degree in spherical shaped one. The detectors of both disk-shaped and spherical forms were warmed up in water, into which an electron beam was irradiated. By applying corrections for the thermal properties, we have obtained experimental results consistent with previous data.
