“…[ 38 ] As the frequency increases, the peak position of α relaxation shifts toward higher temperatures (Figure 17, Supporting Information), which implies the occurrence of a thermally excited relaxation process. [ 38,42 ] Through Arrhenius fittings of the peak temperatures at various frequencies in Figure S17f (Supporting Information), [ 43 ] similar activation energies for γ−500 kGy BOPP film (2.16 eV) and γ−150 kGy film (2.10 eV) were obtained, indicating their similar relaxation behaviors related to the introduction of polar groups.

Polymer dielectric capacitors are fundamental in advanced electronics and power grids but suffer from low energy density, hindering miniaturization of compact electrical systems. We show that high‐energy and strong penetrating γ‐irradiation significantly enhances capacitive energy storage performance of polymer dielectrics. γ‐irradiated biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films exhibit an extraordinarily high energy density of ∼10.4 J cm−3 at ∼968 MV m−1 with an efficiency of ∼97.3%. In particular, an energy density of ∼4.06 J cm−3 with an ultrahigh efficiency of ∼98% is reliably maintained through 20,000 charge‐discharge cycles under 600 MV m−1. At 125 °C, the γ‐irradiated BOPP film still delivers a high discharged energy density of ∼5.88 J cm−3 with an efficiency of ∼90% at ∼770 MV m−1. Substantial improvements are also achieved for γ‐irradiated cycloolefin copolymers at a high temperature of 150 °C, verifying the strategy generalizability. Experimental and theoretical analyses reveal that the excellent performance should be related to the γ‐irradiation induced polar functional groups with high electron affinity in the molecular chain, which offer deep energy traps to impede charge transport. This work provides a simple and generally applicable strategy for developing high‐performance polymer dielectrics.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
