Abstract:
The high-performance energy storage ferroelectrics have drawn enormous attention, but one of the challenges for cutting-edge applications is a limited operating temperature range. Guided by grain boundary structures, composition, and phase field simulation, the remarkable energy-storage solid solutions were designed using ternary solid solutions 1.6SrTiO3·0.4(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3·Bi4Ti3O12, where giant recoverable energy density Ure ∼ 85.0 J/cm3, ultrahigh efficiency ƞ ∼ 69.0% and the state-of-the-art frequency stability were realized at Low Earth Orbit temperature range (-180°C-200°C). The emergent dipolar glass states induced by A-site cationic disorder and size mismatch are the origin of thermal stability and performance retention of 94% at extreme temperatures, which is confirmed by the First Order Reversal Curves method, Arrott plot, and phase field simulation. This work highlights a route to achieve extreme-temperature energy storage films.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
