Abstract

AbstractCapacitors are widely used as energy storage elements in electric vehicles (EVs) and pulsed power. At present, it is still challenging to develop capacitor dielectrics with good energy storage and discharge performance. In this work, antiferroelectric (AFE) ceramics (Pb0.94La0.04)[(Zr0.6Sn0.4)0.92Ti0.08]O3 with enhanced antiferroelectricity were fabricated by a rolling process. The obtained ceramics have a high recoverable energy density of 5.2 J/cm3 and an extremely high efficiency of 91.2% at 327 kV/cm. The ceramics have good energy storage and discharge performance in the temperature range from −40°C to 100°C due to the existence of AFE phase. An energy density of 3.7 J/cm3 can be released at 200 kV/cm in less than 500 ns and the discharge current keeps stable after 1000 charge‐discharge cycles. By direct short experiment, a current density of 1657 A/cm2, which is the highest result in recently developed AFE ceramics, and a power density of 228 MW/cm3 were achieved. The possibility of using AFEs at low temperature was confirmed. The excellent energy storage and discharge performance prove the great potential of the obtained ceramics in high energy and power density applications.
