dc.description.abstractA 2-µm-Pb0.97La0.02(Zr0.75Sn0.18Ti0.07)O3 (PLZST) antiferroelectric (AFE) thick film with tetragonal structure was deposited on LaNiO3/Si (100) substrates via a sol-gel technique. The electrocaloric effect (ECE) of the PLZST thick film is investigated under the functions of external electric field and temperature. Giant ECEs (∆T = 53.8 oC and ∆S = 63.9 J·K-1·kg-1) are received at 5 oC, which is attributed to a field-induced AFE to ferroelectric (FE) phase transition. Moreover, a large ∆T of above 30 oC is remains at temperature range from 5 oC to 25 oC. The maximum electrocaloric coefficient (ξmax = 0.060 K·cm/kV) and refrigeration efficiency (COP = 18) of the film are also obtained at 5 oC. At room temperature, the values of ∆T, ∆S, COP and ξmax are 35.0 oC, 39.0 J·K-1·kg-1, 14 and 0.039 K·cm/kV at 900 kV/cm, respectively. The AFE thick films with giant ECEs are promising candidates for applications in cooling systems at room temperature.en_UK
