Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
The 78 papers, out of 101 presented, cover dielectric, piezoelectric, and ferroelectric ceramics; lead-free piezoelectric ceramics; lithium-ion battery related materials; other batteries and energy related materials; thin film processing and properties; magnetic and semiconductor ceramics; sensors and ceramic science; and processing ceramics. The topics include preparing potassium niobate-barium titanate ceramics using well-dispersed nanoparticles and their dielectric properties, lithium intercalation properties of lithium tetratitanate obtained by nanosheet process, characterizing samarium-doped ceria powders having high specific surface areas synthesized by carbon-assisted spray pyrolysis,planarizing a zinc oxide surface and evaluating the processing damage, he low-temperature preparation and optical hydrogen response of paladium/tatania composite film, and fabricating artificial superlattices using perovskite nanosheets.
