Description

Suited for courses in ceramics, this text is grounded in the fundamentals of ceramics, with emphasis on solid-state physics and chemistry. Chapters 1-9 deal with the atomic structure, bonding the transport of charged defects and their relationships to conductivity in ceramics, phase diagrams and glasses. Chapters 11-16 deal with specific properties and include mechanical thermal dielectric and optical properties.
