Abstract
Polycrystalline ceramics with the composition 0.45BaTi0.80Zr0.20O3-0.55Ba0.69Ca0.30Sm0.01Ti0.99Fe0.01O3 were prepared using the solid-state reaction route. The phase formation of the prepared sample was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) study. The temperature-dependent dielectric permittivity (ε) showed a diffuse phase transition. The observance of ferroelectricity at temperatures above the Curie temperature (TC) suggests the presence of nano-polar regions in the sample. The efficiency (ƞ), recoverable energy density (Wrec), and loss (Wloss) were determined from the P–E loops. The efficiency (ƞ) increased with an increase in temperature, while Wloss showed a reverse trend. The measured value of Wrec was 0.10 J/cm3, and a value of 94% was found for ƞ. The electrocaloric effect (ECE) was studied using the indirect method, and an adiabatic change in temperature (ΔT) of 0.34 K was found at 25 kV/cm with an electrocaloric coefficient = 0.0136 K cm kV−1. These results suggest that this composition can be used in energy storage and electrocaloric applications.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electronic Materials (JEM) reports monthly on the science and technology of electronic materials, while examining new applications for semiconductors, magnetic alloys, dielectrics, nanoscale materials, and photonic materials. The journal welcomes articles on methods for preparing and evaluating the chemical, physical, electronic, and optical properties of these materials. Specific areas of interest are materials for state-of-the-art transistors, nanotechnology, electronic packaging, detectors, emitters, metallization, superconductivity, and energy applications.
Review papers on current topics enable individuals in the field of electronics to keep abreast of activities in areas peripheral to their own. JEM also selects papers from conferences such as the Electronic Materials Conference, the U.S. Workshop on the Physics and Chemistry of II-VI Materials, and the International Conference on Thermoelectrics. It benefits both specialists and non-specialists in the electronic materials field.
A journal of The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.
