Miniature-scale elastocaloric cooling by rubber-based foils

open access: yesJPhys Energy, 2023
We report on the design and characterization of a demonstrator device for miniature-scale elastocaloric (eC) cooling using a series of natural rubber (NR) foil specimens of 9 × 26.5 mm ^2 lateral size and thicknesses in the range of 290–900 μ m.

The impact of hysteresis on the electrocaloric effect at first-order phase transitions

open access: yes, 2017
We study the impact of thermal hysteresis at the first-order structural/ferroelectric phase transitions on the electrocaloric response in bulk BaTiO$_3$ by performing molecular dynamics simulations for a first-principles-based effective Hamiltonian.

Airbrushing: A Novel Method for Preparation of High‐Emissivity Black Coating for Infrared Measurements

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 21, November 10, 2025.
This study showcases the airbrush method, a novel coating technique for the preparation of thin black paint coatings for infrared camera measurements. Using the method, coatings with an emissivity of 0.95, and as thin as 3 µm can be prepared. The method is affordable, non‐destructive, and can be prepared onto a wide range of substrates while ...

Natural rubber based elastocaloric solid-state refrigeration device: design and performances of a single stage system

open access: yesJPhys Energy
The elastocaloric effect denotes the ability of a material to release or absorb heat when the material is stretched and released respectively. This effect may be used to design an alternative cooling device.

Magneto- and Baro- Caloric Responses in Magnetovolumic Systems

open access: yes, 2015
By means of a mean-field model extended to include magnetovolumic effects we study the effect of external fields on the thermal response characterized either by the isothermal entropy change and/or the adiabatic temperature change. The model includes two

Elastocaloric effect in Ti-Ni shape-memory wires associated with the B2 ↔ B19' and B2 ↔ R structural transitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
"We have studied the elastocaloric properties of Ti-Ni shape-memory wires subjected to specific heat treatments to decouple the B2 R transition from the B2 B19' one.

A Simulative Evaluation of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures in the Context of Elastocaloric Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 20, October 2025.
A simulative evaluation of triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures for an elastocaloric application under compressive load is performed. For the evaluation of the structure's performance, surface/volume ratio, generated heat and invested mechanical work are taken into account and are compared to a tube as a reference specimen.

Direct electrocaloric measurement of 0.9Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.1PbTiO3 films using scanning thermal microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We show that scanning thermal microscopy can measure reversible electrocaloric (EC) effects in <40 μm-thick ceramic films of the relaxor ferroelectric 0.9Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.1PbTiO3, with the substrate present.

Impact of Controlled Magneto‐Structural Coupling in MnCoGe‐Based Compounds on the Design of Multifunctional Materials for Technological Advances

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 39, October 20, 2025.
In this work, the authors systematically investigate how Ni substitution regulates the magneto‐structural coupling and their functional consequences in the MnCoGe‐based compounds. Geometric nonlinear theory analysis reveals that Ni modification change of magneto‐structural transition can alleviate the lattice incompatibility, thereby broadening the ...

Wide-temperature-range perfect superelasticity and giant elastocaloric effect in a high entropy alloy

open access: yesMaterials Research Letters, 2019
The high entropy alloy concept offers unique opportunities for the design of advanced materials with unprecedented properties. However, hitherto most of the research efforts are focused on structural materials.
