Turning of non-relativistic electron beam moving in the transverse electric field created by the pair of pyroelectric crystals is shown experimentally for the first time. The transverse electric field arises between the crystals at their heating and cooling. The angle of the electron beam deflection is measured and the value of the transverse electric field is estimated. Prospects for application of pyroelectric crystals for steering of particle beams are discussed.
