  • Using the aerosol deposition method in the preparation of caloric-cooling elements [Elektronski vir]
    Šadl, Matej ...
    The aerosol deposition (AD) is a relatively new method for rapid deposition of thick films of a variety of functional materials at room temperature. The complete consolidation of functional films ... happens in AD due to the impacting of high velocity particles with the substrate. The AD method offers an excellent way of integrating different materials together, such as ceramics, metals, polymers and glasses. For that reason, the AD method opens up new solutions when designing various applications, for example in preparation and integration of caloric elements for new solid-state cooling devices. In this contribution, we will present a few examples of integrating different materials by utilizing the AD method. We will demonstrate how the AD method enables preparation of alumina surface coatings for the protection and the electrical isolation of caloric elements. In addition, the possibilities and prospects of integrating caloric materials on a variety of low-cost substrates will be considered. Furthermore, the electric and electrocaloric properties of prepared aerosol-deposited layers will be discussed.
