Abstract:
First, I will introduce electrocaloric effects [1,2]. These are reversible or nominally reversible thermal changes that arise when changes of electric field drive changes of local electrical polarization. Then, I will describe electrocaloric effects near the 243 K ferroelectric phase transition in epitaxial films of SrTiO3 on DyScO3 substrates [3]. Results will be compared with (1) bulk SrTiO3 and (2) the canonical Landau description of this system.
