Description: This special issue of “Solid State Phenomena” documents some novel experimental and theoretical approaches applied to fascinating materials. Motivated by the increasing need to synthesize and understand the properties of technologically important materials, this issue represents an important step forward in improving our understanding of how modern materials can be optimised for technology and industry. The issue comprises 9 original review papers covering experimental approaches and theoretical modeling. The contributions will be very useful to researchers working in various areas of CMP and will contribute significantly to the understanding of rapidly developing materials with regard to their synthesis, characterization and properties.

Description: Mechanical Alloying has recently been gathering world wide attention as a means of producing metastable and non-equilibrium alloy phases. There is a large potential for producing amorphous alloys by this technique. Mechanical alloying is also well suited for the production of nano-crystalline materials and oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) superalloys, as well as for the synthesis of metal nitrides and hydrides.
