In this study, the electrocaloric (EC) effect was enhanced at room temperature for (Ba_(0.904)Ca_(0.096)) (Zr_(0.136)Ti_(0.864)-xFe_x)O_3 (BZT-0.32BCT-xFe 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.015) thin films prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO_2/(100)Si substrates. The existence of an orthorhombic phase in the Fe-doped thin films at room temperature was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectra. Tetragonal, orthorhombic, and rhombohedral phases coexist in all the investigated Fe-doped thin films. The relative content of the orthorhombic phase is most prominent at x = 0.0075. The BZT-0.32BCT-xFe thin film exhibits excellent properties with a giant EC effect (ΔT = 22.99 K, E = 1050 kV/cm, and T = 307 K) at x = 0.0075 compared to the undoped thin film, stemming from multiphase coexistence and a larger orthorhombic phase. The results of this study are useful for developing lead-free electrocaloric materials with superior properties.
