Abstract
Antiferroelectric materials are highly desired for high energy-storage density capacitors and electrocaloric refrigerator in the future due to their excellent energy storage properties and giant negative electrocaloric effect, which have attracted great attention in recent years. In the present work, a highly recoverable energy density (Wrec) and a large reversible adiabatic temperature change (ΔT) were obtained simultaneously in PLZS thick film ceramics (TFCs). A maximum Wrec of 9.84 J·cm−3 with an efficiency of 85.2 % at 440 kV·cm−1, and a negative ΔT of −9.50 °C at 280 kV·cm−1 were obtained. Moreover, the maximum value of electrocaloric strength of 0.98 K·m·MV−1 was achieved for Pb0.97La0.02(Zr0.50Sn0.50)O3 TFCs. These results demonstrate that the PLZS TFCs can be applied potentially for high energy-storage density capacitors and refrigerators.
