Low pressure reversibly driving colossal barocaloric effect in two-dimensional vdW alkylammonium halides

Abstract Plastic crystals as barocaloric materials exhibit the large entropy change rivalling freon, however, the limited pressure-sensitivity and large hysteresis of phase transition hinder the colossal barocaloric effect accomplished reversibly at low pressure. Here we report reversible colossal b...
