Abstract

The existing situation in prospects of application of electrocaloric effect (ECE), related to finding ferroelectrics exhibiting high values of ECE, is discussed. Besides 1st order ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transitions, which were most promising till recent time with respect to high values of ECE, there are other approaches, related to ECE in high field range in relaxors and polymers. The restrictions of application of traditional indirect evaluation of ECE in ferroelectrics are discussed.
