Advanced Multifunctional Electroceramics
Description:
As a relatively recent phenomenon, Electroceramics have had a profound impact on the so called "electronics revolution". Ceramic materials that have been specially formulated for specific electrical, electromagnetic and optical properties can be tailored for their use as insulators, ferroelectric materials, highly conductive ceramics, electrodes, MEMS, energy convertors, sensors and actuators, etc. The quest to push performance boundaries through further study into the fundamental aspects of electroceramics and their commercial applications is essential for the advancement of this science and technology. These works show the latest knowhow and new insights to the development of electroceramics

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
The biennial conference provides an opportunity for researchers and engineers to share knowledge regarding ceramic materials that have been specially formulated for specific electrical, electromagnetic, and optical properties for use in electronics. The 25 selected papers discuss such aspects as the fabrication and piezoelectric property of textured bismuth layered structural ceramics by hot pressing techniques, the aluminum-induced crystallization of p<su>+ silicon pinholes to form the rear passivation contact in a solar cell, thermal expansion and polarization behavior in lead titanate/zinc oxide nanocomposite ceramics, the charge-discharge properties of non-linear dielectric capacitors, and boron doping effects on the structural and optical properties of sol-gel transparent zinc oxide films.
