摘要

Motivated by a broad temperature span, we performed a strain-induced broadening temperature range of electrocaloric effects in PbZr0.6Ti0.4O3/PbTiO3 ferroelectric superlattices based on phenomenological Landau-Devonshire thermodynamic theory. The results indicated that interlayer misfit strain and substrate misfit strain in superlattices modulate the Curie temperature. Considering two types of strains coexist in ferroelectric superlattices, there exist a balance between interlayer misfit strain and substrate misfit strain to broaden temperature range (281 K) of electrocaloric effects. The present study therefore contributes to the understanding of strain effects of electrocaloric cooling and provides guidance towards experimental design of high efficiency cooling devices.
