In the search of new electrocaloric materials: Fast ion conductors
We analyse the effects of applying an electric field on the critical temperature at which superionicity appears in archetypal fast ion conductor CaF2, by means of molecular dynamics simulations. We find that the onset of superionicity can be reduced by about 100 K when relatively small electric fiel...
