摘要
Recently electrocaloric effect in lead-free environmental friendly ferroelectrics is in its peak research. The feasible and existed electrocaloric response in lead-free (1-x) (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 - xSrZrO(3) (KNN-xSZ) nanocrystalline ceramics is demonstrated using Maxwell's thermodynamic approach. The maximum electrocaloric response of 1.19 K at 367 K was observed under the electric field of 35 kV/cm, and the corresponding electrocaloric responsivity value was found to be 3.40 x 10(-7) K m/V at 367 K for x = 0.10. A significant coefficient of performance (COP) and electrical energy storage density (W-rec) were calculated to be 0.62 and 0.20 J/cm(3), respectively. The atomistic mechanism of the electrocaloric effect is discussed. The results indicate that KNN-xSZ is a favourable material in the cooling system applications and energy-storage for electronic devices. The material allows electrocaloric cooling mode with versatile properties for the cooling operation by an external electric field and operating temperature. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V.
