Description: Composite materials are traditionally designed for the mechanical properties, due to their structural applications. However, composite materials are increasingly used in non-structural applications, such as electronic packaging and thermal management. Moreover, structural composite materials that are multifunctional are increasingly needed, due to the demand of smart structures and the importance of weight saving. As a consequence, structural materials that can provide electronic functions are needed. Thus, electronic functions are desirable for both non-structural and structural composite materials.

Description: The book covers all aspects of the micromorphology of as-grown, etched, abraded and lapped, and fractured surfaces of single and polycrystalline solids, and glasses of as diverse substances as insulators, semiconductors, metals and polymers.
