Principles of Inorganic Materials Design

Beschreibung

Unique interdisciplinary approach enables readers to overcomecomplex design challenges Integrating concepts from chemistry, physics, materials science,metallurgy, and ceramics, Principles of Inorganic MaterialsDesign, Second Edition offers a unique interdisciplinaryapproach that enables readers to grasp the complexities ofinorganic materials. The book provides a solid foundation in theprinciples underlying the design of inorganic materials and thenoffers the guidance and tools needed to create specific materialswith desired macroscopic properties. Principles of Inorganic Materials Design, Second Editionbegins with an introduction to structure at the microscopic leveland then progresses to smaller-length scales. Next, the authorsexplore both phenomenological and atomistic-level descriptions oftransport properties, the metal?nonmetal transition, magnetic anddielectric properties, optical properties, and mechanicalproperties. Lastly, the book covers phase equilibria, synthesis,and nanomaterials. Special features include: * Introduction to the CALPHAD method, an important, but oftenoverlooked topic * More worked examples and new end-of-chapter problems to helpensure mastery of the concepts * Extensive references to the literature for more in-depthcoverage of particular topics * Biographies introducing twentieth-century pioneers in the fieldof inorganic materials science This Second Edition has been thoroughly revised andupdated, incorporating the latest findings and featuring expandeddiscussions of such key topics as microstructural aspects, densityfunctional theory, dielectric properties, mechanical properties,and nanomaterials. Armed with this text, students and researchers in inorganic andphysical chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineeringwill be equipped to overcome today's complex design challenges.This textbook is recommended for senior-level undergraduate andgraduate course work.
