Answer and Explanation:

Pyroelectric material

Pyroelectric materials have special property of generating potential difference (although it is very less ) when these material are treated with heat or when celled down.

The potential difference generated is for very less time

The generation of potential difference is due to change in position of atoms after heating or cooling.
