Abstract

Self-Cooling Energy Storage In their Research Article (10.1002/adfm.202523520), Wenjun Cao, Yunya Liu, and co-workers present an integrated energy storage-thermal management design strategy. By synergistically regulating the interfacial polarization effect and polarization entropy change, dual breakthroughs in electrocaloric (EC) cooling and energy storage performance are achieved. It innovatively introduces an EC regulation mechanism into dielectric energy storage systems, providing a new material solution for the integrated energy storage and thermal management design of high-power capacitors.
