Enhanced electrocaloric effect at room temperature in Mn2+ doped lead-free (BaSr)TiO3 ceramics via a direct measurement
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract (Ba1−xSrx)(MnyTi1−y)O3(BSMT) ceramics withx= 35, 40 mol% andy= 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 mol% were prepared using a conventional solid-state reaction approach. The dielectric and ferroelectric properties were characterized using impedance analysis and polarization-electric field (P–E) hysteresis loop measurements, respectively. The adiabatic temperature drop was directly measured using a thermocouple when the applied electric field was removed. The results indicate that high permittivity and low dielectric losses were obtained by doping 0.1–0.4 mol% of manganese ions in (BaSr)TiO3(BST) specimens. A maximum electrocaloric effect (ECE) of 2.75 K in temperature change with electrocaloric strength of 0.55 K·(MV/m)−1was directly obtained at ∼21 °C and 50 kV/cm in Ba0.6Sr0.4Mn0.001Ti0.999O3sample, offering a promising ECE material for practical refrigeration devices working at room temperature.
