Members of the group joined together for a group ice skating event and dinner.
Dr. Hamidreza Khassaf and PhD student Tulsi Patel publish their work on flexocaloric responses in ferroelectric films in the Journal of Applied Physics. They consider the flexocaloric adiabatic temperature changes for various misfit strains including the one for prototypical barium titanate on strontium titanate.
