Superconductors and Superconductivity

Edited by: Dr. Stanislav Kolisnychenko

Online since: July 2015

Description: The phenomenon of superconductivity in materials offers great opportunities for fundamental and applied sciences. Application of superconducting material in measuring devices, medical diagnostics, in space and energy industries and transport, is only a short list of possible use of the phenomenon of superconductivity in everyday human activity.

The special collection “Superconductors and Superconductivity” consists of papers published by Trans Tech Publications Inc. from 2010 up to 2015 and covers a wide range of advanced achievements in the field of applied research and applied application of superconductors in different branches of engineering.

Compiled scientific papers are presented in two chapters:
Chapter 1: Superconductors: Properties and Production Technologies
Chapter 2: Practice of Using Superconductors and Superconductivity

Reactive Phase Formation at Interfaces and Diffusion Processes

Edited by: Y. Limoge and J.L. Bocquet

Online since: May 1994

Description: In a majority of cases, the various processes which give rise to matter transport lead to the formation of new interfaces and to the concommitant development of new phases on either side of these newly created interfaces. The latter play a particularly important role, in the sense that the reactions that produce the new phases take place there.
