Antipolar-breaking eliciting giant energy storage in antiferroelectric ceramics
The antipolar-breaking strategy in PbZrO3-based AFE materials can substantially postpone the phase-transition field and minimize electric hysteresis, thereby markedly enhancing overall energy-storage capabilities. This strategy will accelerate progress of the research and application in AFE-related high-performance devices, the achieved energy-storage performance, and the underlying mechanism establishes valuable design guidelines for developing high-performance multiplayer ceramic capacitors.
