PbZr0.35Ti0.65O3 (PZT), PbZrO3 (PZO), and PZT/PZO ferroelectric/antiferroelectric multilayer films were prepared on a Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate using the sol–gel method. Microstructures and physical properties such as the polarization behaviors, leakage current, dielectric features, and energy-storage characteristics of the three films were systematically explored. All electric field-dependent phase transitions, from sharp to diffused, can be tuned by layer structure, indicated by the polarization, shift current, and dielectric properties. The leakage current behaviors suggested that the layer structure could modulate the current mechanism, including space-charge-limited bulk conduction for single layer films and Schottky emission for multilayer thin films. The electric breakdown strength of a PZT/PZO multilayer structure can be further enhanced to 1760 kV/cm, which is higher than PZT (1162 kV/cm) and PZO (1373 kV/cm) films. A recoverable energy-storage density of 21.1 J/cm3 was received in PZT/PZO multilayers due to its high electric breakdown strength. Our results demonstrate that a multilayer structure is an effective method for enhancing energy-storage capacitors.

Overcoming sticky problems of large dielectric loss and poor breakdown strength ( Eb) is prerequisite of actual applications for high dielectric constant polymer composites. Herein, three kinds of multi-layer structure composites with different spatial structures (2MP-CE/CNT, CE/CNT-2MP-CE/CNT, MP-CE/CNT-MP) were prepared based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs), cyanate ester (CE) resin and mica paper (MP). Compared with traditional single-layer CE/CNT composite, multi-layer CE/CNT-2MP-CE/CNT composites, of which the middle layer is two pieces of MPs with a thickness of 60 µm, while both bottom and top layers are CE/CNT composite, simultaneously achieve 105 reduction in dielectric loss and 18.1 times increase in energy storage density ( Ue). Through modulating two sheets of MPs and CE/CNT as top and bottom layer, respectively, 2MP-CE/CNT composite with 60 μm MPs has the largest breakdown strength ( Eb), its Eb and Ue are severally about 7.1 and 19.5 times of those of CE/CNT composite. The relationship and mechanism between spatial structure and integrated performance such as dielectric properties, Eb and Ue of composites were systematically investigated. The attractive integrated performances of CE/CNT-2MP-CE/CNT and 2MP-CE/CNT composites are attributed to their unique composition and spatial structures, which bring special micro-capacitance and interfacial polarization, and thus leading to outstanding performances. Therefore, this investigation provides a strategy for getting desirable performances through building composites with specific spatial structure.

Abstract There is a growing need for high energy density capacitors in modern electric power supplies. The creation of nanocomposite systems based on one-dimensional nanofibers has shown great potential in achieving a high energy density since they can optimize the energy density by exploiting both the high permittivity of ceramic fillers and the high breakdown strength of the polymer matrix. In this paper, BaTiO3 nanofibers (NFs) with different aspect ratio were synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal method and the permittivity and energy storage of the P(VDF-HFP) nanocomposites were investigated. It is found that as the BaTiO3 NF aspect ratio and volume fraction increased the permittivity and maximum electric displacement of the nanocomposites increased, while the breakdown strength decreased. The nanocomposites with the highest aspect ratio BaTiO3 NFs exhibited the highest energy storage density at the same electric field. However, the nanocomposites with the lowest aspect ratio BaTiO3 NFs achieved the maximal energy storage density of 15.48 J/cm3 due to its higher breakdown strength. This contribution provides a potential route to prepare and tailor the properties of high energy density capacitor nanocomposites.

The energy storage density of (1-x) BaTiO3 – x Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) ceramics was investigated. The microstructure of samples was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The energy storage density was calculated from the P-E hysteresis loops measured at room temperature. Experimental results show that the energy storage density of 0.9 BaTiO3 – 0.1 Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 ceramics is highest among all compositions. At 15.8kV/mm electric field, the energy storage density of the sample can reach up to 1.07J/cm3, which is about 1.5 times higher than pure BaTiO3. The improvement of the energy density can be due to two factors: one is the improved breakdown strength caused by the optimized microstructure, the other is the decreased remnant polarization. This result indicates that bulk 0.9 BaTiO3 – 0.1 Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 ceramic has advantages compared with pure BaTiO3 ceramic for energy storage applications, and with further improvements in microstructure and reduction of sintering temperature, could be a good candidate for energy storage capacitors.

SrO–BaO–Nb2O5–B2O3system glass-ceramics with Gd2O3/BaF2addition have been prepared by controlled crystallization method. The effect of Gd2O3/BaF2addition on the phase evolution, dielectric properties and energy storage properties has been investigated. The addition of Gd2O3/BaF2to the glass-ceramics changes the dielectric property and energy storage density. The glass-ceramics with 0.5 mol% Gd2O3and 4.5mol% BaF2heat treated at 850°C/3h possesses a dielectric constant of 125, a breakdown strength of 1055 kV/mm and energy storage density of 6.16J/cm3, which are promising materials for high energy storage density dielectrics.
