Description for Electrocaloric Materials
Paperback. Written and edited by pioneers developing a new generation of cooling agents, this is the first book on the properties of electrocaloric materials and their potential in refrigeration. It also covers promising recent advances in ferroelectric thin films. Editor(s): Correia, Tatiana; Zhang, Qi. Series: Engineering Materials. Num Pages: 261 pages, 105 black & white illustrations, 36 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: TGM; TGMT; TJFC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 14. Weight in Grams: 409.
Since the 1997 Kyoto protocol of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, the development of novel refrigerators has been a priority within the scientific community. Although magnetocaloric materials are promising candidates, they still need a large magnetic field to induce a giant ΔT as well as powerful and costly magnets. However, in electrocaloric materials (ECMs) a temperature change may be achieved by applying or removing an electric field. Since a giant electrocaloric effect on ferroelectric thin films was reported in Science in 2006, researchers have been inspired to explore such effect in different ferroelectric thin films.
