We present a systematic study on the relation of the electrocaloric effect (ECE) and the relaxor state transition of BaZrxTi1−xO3 (BZT) using a combination of computer simulation and experiment. The results of canonical and microcanonical lattice-based Monte Carlo simulations with a Ginzburg-Landau-type Hamiltonian are compared with measurements of BaZrxTi1−xO3 (x = 0.12 and 0.2) samples.

Improving the rate capability and cycle stability of two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) still holds the key to its application in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Here we reported liquid-exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets/graphene composites (MoS2/Gra) towards the high capacity and excellent cycle stability for LIBs.
