Books by Keyword: Oxide Ceramics

Description: Ion conducting, proton conducting and mixed conductor materials are important components of solid state devices for energy storage and conversion and for energy production. The present volume of "Diffusion Foundations" is the second one of two volumes devoted to recent progress in structure, thermodynamics, ion and proton transport in ionic materials and in this volume ceramic materials and polymer membranes are in focus.

Description: All physical properties of electronic ceramics are strongly influenced by microstructure induced disorder. The aim of the present book is to present examples of how defect engineering procedures can be used to solve some crucial issues in ceramic science.
