Description: In the field of engineering, the ability of a finished part to fulfil its function in the intended application is closely related to properties of materials for its production. The development of new high-technology structural materials, adapted to each new application, requires knowledge of base matter properties, the regularity of changes in its microstructure and properties during processing. This volume contains results of research of the microstructures of materials, methods by which the latter are worked, the effect of interactions at the interfaces for multi-materials and how structure determines their final properties.

Description: This book comprises the contributions to the sixth conference on polycrystalline semiconductors (POLYSE).
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The conference covered many aspects of polycrystalline semiconductors, but was more applications-oriented than on previous occasions; thereby reflecting the rapid evolution of these technologies. POLYSE 2000 brought together research specialists from >basic research, as well as from research & development engineering, all of whom are working on devices such as thin-film transistors, micro-electromechanical systems, or sensors and actuators. In particular, ten internationally recognized scientists (J. Morante, S.Périchon, M. Konagai, S. Wagner, R. Hagenbeck, D.A. Bonnell, G. Horowitz, T.Fuyuki, J. Kocka and V. Chuwere) were invited to review their work on several interesting and promising aspects of the subject: such as, micro-systems, solar cells, thin-film transistors, organic polycrystalline devices and polycrystalline ceramics.

Description: This book covers the physics and technology of polycrystalline semiconductors by presenting the work of scientists who are concerned with a variety of polycrystalline materials in research, technology, and application, with a view to bridge the gap between fundamental and technological aspects of polycrystalline semiconductors.

Description: The power of powder diffraction - the diffraction analysis of polycrystalline specimens - is shown again convincingly in these Proceedings of the Second European Powder Diffraction Conference EPDIC 2.
