- The article is describing advantages using anisotropic electrocaloric materials where a tungsten bronze type oxide was doped with cerium to tune the optimal electrocaloric effect (ECE) towards room temperatures. The ECE measured in Ce-doped SrBaNbO tungsten bronze was comparable as the best ever reported for any lead-free material. The experimental validated theoretical model, however on a single crystal, enhanced the fact that cheaper bulk polycrystalline ceramics could be used if utilizing the anisotropy correctly. These results was part of an international consortium between UK, Czech Republic, Slovenia and France for EC solid state refrigeration demonstrator research proposals.
