Exceptionally High Negative Electro-Caloric Effects of Poly(VDF–co–TrFE) Based Nanocomposites Tuned by the Geometries of Barium Titanate Nanofillers

Exceptionally high electro-caloric effects (ECEs) are observed in nanocomposites consisting of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) (VDF–co–TrFE) copolymer and barium titanate (BT) nanoparticles and nanowires. The poly(VDF–co–TrFE) matrix nanocomposites containing 5% volume fraction of BT...
