Abstract
As one of the core components in electronic devices, dielectric capacitors with superior electrostatic energy-storage performances have captured great interest recently. In this Letter, the B-site high-entropy end-member Ba(Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2Fe0.2Nb0.2)O3 was introduced into Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 (BNT) ceramics to improve the entropy configuration. Accordingly, the coexisting PNRs with R3c and P4bm, enhanced dielectric relaxation, and decreased grain size were obtained in entropy modified BNT ceramics, leading to slim ferroelectric hysteresis (P–E) loops with reduced Pr and small hysteresis, as well as promoted electric breakdown strength (Eb). Resultantly, the optimal ceramics presented a high recoverable energy density (Wrec) of 7.1 J/cm3 and a high efficiency (η) of 89.5% under 360 kV/cm, along with excellent frequency (10–100 Hz), cycling (1–106), and temperature (25–160 °C) stability. This work demonstrates the practicability of high-entropy engineering in seeking for high-performance dielectric capacitors for advanced high/pulsed power devices.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
