The Electrocaloric Effect by Andrei L Kholkin
The Electrocaloric Effect: Materials and Applications reviews the fundamentals of the electrocaloric effect, the most relevant electrocaloric materials, and electrocaloric measurements and device applications. The book introduces the electrocaloric effect, along with modeling and simulations of this effect. Then, it addresses the latest advances in synthesis, characterization and optimization of the most relevant electrocaloric materials, including ferroelectric materials, liquid materials, lead-free materials, polymers and composites. Finally, there is a review of the latest techniques in measurement and applications in refrigeration and cooling and a discussion of the advantages, challenges and perspectives of the future of electrocaloric refrigeration.-

Dr. Andrei L. Kholkin is a Principal Researcher at the CICECO-Aveiro Institute of Materials and Department of Physics at the University of Aveiro in Portugal. Dr. Kholkin’s research interests are in the area of materials science of ferroelectrics, piezoelectrics, and multiferroics: thin films, single crystals and ceramics. His study is mainly devoted to functional materials for piezoelectric devices, degradation effects, and, recently, to their nanoscale characterization by Scanning Probe Microscopy techniques. Prof. Oleg Pakhomov was an Associate Professor of Cryogenics and Cryoelectronics at ITMO University in St. Petersburg, Russia. Dr. Pakhomov’s primary research interests included the study of materials with ferroelectric, piezoelectric and electrocaloric properties. He passed away in October, 2021. Prof. Alexander A. Semenov is the Head of the Department of Physical Electronics and Technology at St. Petersburg Electrotechnical University in Russia. Dr. Semenov current research activities include the physics of wave processes in layered structures and applications of ferroelectric, ferromagnetic films and layered nanostructures in microwave electronics. Dr. Alexander Tselev is a Principal Researcher at the CICECO-Aveiro Institute of Materials and Department of Physics at the University of Aveiro in Portugal. Dr. Tselev’s primary research interests include the physics of novel functional materials for energy storage and harvesting as well as for electronics, photonics, and data storage with a focus on complex oxide materials.
