Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Antiferroelectric (AFE) materials have garnered considerable attention in electrocaloric (EC) refrigeration owing to the large entropy change accompanying their transitions and the coexistence of positive and negative EC effects. Almost all studies to date of EC response in AFEs have employed the indirect characterization of thermodynamic behavior based on the Maxwell relation, regardless of the significant electric hysteresis behavior of AFEs in unipolar polarization. Herein, using direct isothermal heat flow measurements in the AFE ceramic Pb 0.99 Nb 0.02 [(Zr 0.6 Sn 0.4 ) 0.94 Ti 0.06 ] 0.98 O 3 as the benchmark, we discover the large deviation in carrying out indirect EC characterization on AFEs. The electric hysteresis also results in self-heating due to the asymmetric exothermic and endothermic cyclic response, and can be calculated quantificationally from the hysteresis area of P-E loops. Our work emphasizes the necessity in carrying out direct EC characterization on AFEs, and suggests the importance in designing AFE EC refrigeration materials with low electric hysteresis.
