Advanced materials for solid-state refrigeration

open access: yes, 2013
Recent progress on caloric effects are reviewed. The application of external stimuli such as magnetic field, hydrostatic pressure, uniaxial stress and electric field give rise respectively to magnetocaloric, barocaloric, elastocaloric and electrocaloric ...

Perturbative approach to electrocaloric effects

open access: yes, 2020
We show that the electrocaloric (EC) effect -- e.g., the temperature change experienced by an insulator upon application of an electric bias -- lends itself to a straightforward interpretation when expressed as a Taylor series in the external field. Our formalism explains in a unified and simple way the most notable small-field effects reported the ...

Direct Observation of Electric‐Field‐Driven Phase Transitions Associated with Energy Storage in Antiferroelectric Films

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The electric‐field‐driven antiferroelectric‐to‐ferroelectric phase transition in epitaxial PbZrO3 films is directly visualized by in situ aberration‐corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy. A sequential transition pathway involving an orthorhombic ferrielectric phase and a monoclinic ferroelectric phase, ultimately stabilizing into a ...

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.

Control of Covalent Bond Enables Efficient Magnetic Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
Giant and reversible magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is achieved by tuning covalency through sub‐unit‐cell chemical engineering, establishing a novel design principle for effective hysteresis control in magnetocaloric materials. Abstract Magnetic cooling, harnessing the temperature change in matter when exposed to a magnetic field, presents an energy ...

Giant negative electrocaloric effect in B-site non-stoichiometric (Pb0.97La0.02)(Zr0.95Ti0.05)1+yO3 anti-ferroelectric ceramics

open access: yesMaterials Research Letters, 2018
A negative electrocaloric effect (ECE) in B-site non-stoichiometric (Pb0.97La0.02)(Zr0.95Ti0.05)O3 antiferroelectric ceramics synthesized by the conventional solid-state reaction method is investigated via indirect and direct measurements.

The electrocaloric effect in BaTiO$_3$ at all three ferroelectric transitions: anisotropy and inverse caloric effects

open access: yes, 2017
We study the electrocaloric (EC) effect in bulk BaTiO$_3$ (BTO) using molecular dynamics simulations of a first principles-based effective Hamiltonian, combined with direct measurements of the adiabatic EC temperature change in BTO single crystals.

Determination of optimal reversed field with maximal electrocaloric cooling by a direct entropy analysis

open access: yes, 2016
Application of a negative field on a positively poled ferroelectric sample can enhance the electrocaloric cooling and appears as a promising method to optimize the electrocaloric cycle.
