Equation (1) was fitted to the data (black line), providing the maximum achievable specific cooling power (dashed line) and the cut-off frequency (dotted line). The orange line is the theoretical optimum, without thermal resistance. The quantification of the error bars is described in detail in the methods section “Quantification of measurement uncertainties”.
