Book Diffusion in Ceramics

Download or read book Diffusion in Ceramics written by Joshua Pelleg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-20 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides an introduction to changes that occur in solids such as ceramics, mainly at high temperatures, which are diffusion controlled, as well as presenting research data. Such changes are related to the kinetics of various reactions such as precipitation, oxidation and phase transformations, but are also related to some mechanical changes, such as creep. The book is composed of two parts, beginning with a look at the basics of diffusion according to Fick's Laws. Solutions of Fick’s second law for constant D, diffusion in grain boundaries and dislocations are presented along with a look at the atomistic approach for the random motion of atoms. In the second part, the author discusses diffusion in several technologically important ceramics. The ceramics selected are monolithic single phase ones, including: A12O3, SiC, MgO, ZrO2 and Si3N4. Of these, three refer to oxide ceramics (alumina, magnesia and zirconia). Carbide based ceramics are represented by the technologically very important Si-carbide and nitride based ceramics are represented by Si-nitride which has been important in high temperature ceramics and gas turbine applications. The author presents a clear, concise and relatively comprehensive treatment of diffusion in ceramics for use by those at an advanced undergraduate level and beyond. It supports understanding of the basic behavior of materials and how to relate observed physical properties to microscopic understanding. The book also provides researchers with a handy collation of data relating to diffusion in ceramics and supports a fundamental understanding of atomic movements.

Book Diffusion in Ceramics

Download or read book Diffusion in Ceramics written by David J. Fisher and published by Trans Tech Publications Ltd. This book was released on 1999-05-17 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although this volume is ostensibly devoted to diffusion per se, it also covers ionic conduction because this phenomenon, in the often complex and charge-sensitive structures of many ceramics, usually gives important clues as to the routes taken by all migrating species. The definition of what constitutes a ceramic is also liberally interpreted here so as to include substances which are not normally used as such in the industrial sense. One obvious anomaly is the class of so-called room-temperature superconductors which, perversely, are expected to be used at the opposite end of the temperature scale to traditional ceramic applications. The coverage of research on oxides, carbides and nitrides herein is believed to be as complete as possible, while other possible candidates for inclusion are not necessarily to be found in the 'miscellaneous' section. Silicides, in particular, are notable by their absence.

Priority of coverage has also been given to experimental data, as usual, although the first qualitative observations of new phenomena, etc., may also be included. A wide range of readers will find the present compilation to be a handy summary of recent progress in the relevant fields, including the barely decade-old one of oxide superconductors.

Book Surfaces and Interfaces of Ceramic Materials

Download or read book Surfaces and Interfaces of Ceramic Materials written by L.C. Dufour and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-04 with total page 806 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Surfaces and Interfaces of Ceramic Materials, held on the Oleron island, France, in September 1988. This Institute was organized in nine months after receiving the agreement of the NATO Scientific Affairs Division. Despite this very short time, most of the lecturers contacted have accepted our invitation to prepare a specific talk. The meeting was held at "La Vieille Perrotine" on the Oleron island. This holiday village of the French CNRS is located near the Ocean in a natural area which contributed to create a very pleasant atmosphere favourable to develop interaction between the 91 participants in this Institute. First of all, the Institute was aimed at diffusing the foremost results on the characterization of and the role played by surfaces, grain boundaries and interfaces in preparation and overall properties of ceramic materials, mainly of oxide ceramics. Through its interdisciplinary character, the Institute was also aimed at developing interaction between scientists and engineers interested in basic and practical aspects of processing and use of ceramics.

Book Defects and Diffusion in Ceramics

Download or read book Defects and Diffusion in Ceramics written by D. J. Fisher and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second issue, following DDF164, to cover recent progress in this field. The contents are contiguous with those of DDF164, and extend to late November or December 1999 (depending upon journal publication dates). As usual, priority in abstracting has been given to the most accessible work and, in particular, to those papers which furnish original data or report important new techniques, phenomena or anomalies, although there is also extensive coverage of more qualitative features of diffusion and defect phenomena, and of the predictions of computer models. The issue of course also includes original papers on the topic at hand covering, in this case, the synthesis and properties of zirconia-based nanocrystalline powders and ceramics (R.E. Juárez, D.G. Lamas, G.E. Lascalea and N.E. Walsöe de Reca), the optical properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbide films (W.K. Choi), the structures and optical properties of defects as related to photo-induced refractive index changes in Ge-doped silica glass (M. Fujimaki and Y. Ohki) and the effects of Li intercalation in zirconia films (A.K. Jonsson, M. Strømme Mattsson, G.A. Niklasson). As well as these ceramic-specific papers, the present issue contains timely papers on other materials, such as an analysis of Diffusion Mechanisms in Ni3Al, Ni3Ge and Ni3Ga (I.V. Belova and G.E. Murch) and molecular dynamics simulations of self-diffusion in GaAs (P. Murugan and K. Ramachandran). Altogether, this again makes the present work the most up-to-date and convenient source of information on current trends in the field of Defects and Diffusion.

Book Nanoinformatics

Download or read book Nanoinformatics written by Isao Tanaka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book brings out the state of the art on how informatics-based tools are used and expected to be used in nanomaterials research. There has been great progress in the area in which “big-data” generated by experiments or computations are fully utilized to accelerate discovery of new materials, key factors, and design rules. Data-intensive approaches play indispensable roles in advanced materials characterization. "Materials informatics" is the central paradigm in the new trend. "Nanoinformatics" is its essential subset, which focuses on nanostructures of materials such as surfaces, interfaces, dopants, and point defects, playing a critical role in determining materials properties. There have been significant advances in experimental and computational techniques to characterize individual atoms in nanostructures and to gain quantitative information. The collaboration of researchers in materials science and information science is growing actively and is creating a new trend in materials science and engineering.

Book Processing of Crystalline Ceramics

Download or read book Processing of Crystalline Ceramics written by Hare and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume constitutes the Proceedings of the November 7-9, 1977 Conference on PROCESSING OF CRYSTALLINE CERAMICS, held at North Carolina State University in Raleigh. It was the Fourteenth in a series of "University Conferences on Ceramic Science" initiated in 1964 and still coordinated by a founding group of four ceramic related institutions, of which North Carolina State University is a charter member, along with the University of California at Berkeley, Notre Dame University, and the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. In addition, two other ceramic-oriented schools, the University of Florida and Case-Western Reserve University, have also hosted Conferences in the series. These research-oriented conferences, each uniquely concerned with a timely ceramic theme, have been well attended by audiences which typically were both inter national and interdisciplinary in character; their published Proceedings have been well received and are frequently cited. This three day conference was concerned with (a) scientific aspects of all process steps which must be combined and controlled effectively and sequentially in producing crystalline ceramics (both oxides and nonoxides), and (b) utilization of these principles in developing processes for several classes of advanced ceramics critical to present and future technology.
