The possibility for application of semiconductor element for heating of pyroelectric crystalin a pyroelectric accelerator of charged particles or pyroelectric X-ray generator is at first proposed and demonstrated experimentally. Spectra of X-ray radiation measured at the heating of the pyroelectric crystal LiNbO3 by silicon diode at different pressures of residual gas are presented. Perspectives for application of semiconductor heater in the pyroelectric accelerators and X-ray generators are discussed.
