This volume contains the papers presented at the XXth International Conference on Solid Compounds of Transition Elements (SCTE2016), held at the Paraninfo Building of the University of Zaragoza, 11th-15th April 2016.
The papers are representative of all the subjects covered by the Conference and have been arranged into seven chapters which encompass materials and properties, grouped by shared features or functionalities: Intermetallic compounds, Metal oxides, Magnetocaloric, thermoelectric and energy storage materials, Multifunctional materials, Strongly correlated and superconducting compounds, Molecular magnetism and Disordered materials.
The main scope of the Ninth Japanese-Mediterranean Workshop on Applied Electromagnetic Engineering for Magnetic, Superconducting, Multifunctional and Nanomaterials (JAPMED’9) is to exploit synergies in technological advances concerning innovative materials and improved design optimization methodologies in the frame of concrete applications by bridging the gap amongst the respective scientific communities. The aims are to create appropriate links for the participants to share knowledge and experience and for the cross-fertilization of new ideas and developments in applied electromagnetics, design, analysis, new material utilization, from macro-, micro-, to nano-scale and optimization techniques including applications related to biomedical engineering, superconductivity, ultraprecision engineering, nanotechnology, energy and environment. Topics related to practical applications, operation, maintenance are also highly encouraged.
This special collection gathers together the newest results on novel classes of materials which contain transition metals. It covers crystal chemistry, chemical bonding and electronic structure, magnetic and electron transport properties, thermo-electrics, hydrides, borides, carbides, silicides, germanides, pnictides, chalcogenides and complexes, metallic alloys and oxides. It will of interest to all those who work with transition metals.
This book features 100 refereed papers, grouped under the following six headings: Advanced Synthesis & Characterization Techniques of Materials, Structure & Electron Structure of Solids, Chemistry of Glasses, Novel Inorganic Materials, Layered Compounds, Clathrates & Intercalates, Deposited Films & Surface Chemistry.
