This book highlights the optical properties of metal oxides at both the fundamental and applied level and their use in various applications. The book offers a basic understanding of the optical properties and related spectroscopic techniques essential for anyone interested in learning about metal oxide nanostructures. This is partly due to the fact that optical properties are closely associated with other properties and functionalities (e.g., electronic, magnetic, and thermal), which are of essential significance to many technological applications, such as optical data communications,...

This book investigates the development of high proton conduction properties free-standing two-dimensional coordination polymer membranes, with the goal of elucidating the mechanical flexibility, proton conduction behavior, and structural characteristics of these materials under varying environmental conditions. The book evaluates the possible uses of these membranes in flexible electronics and energy technologies and thoroughly examines proton conduction mechanisms using an interdisciplinary research approach that combines chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering. The most...

The book covers a wide range of topics including the intersection of nuclear technology with economics, engineering, environmental studies, and law. Readers delve into the lessons learned from the TEPCO...

This book highlights the history of electroceramics starting from synthesis using different routes of the solid solution to hybrid nanocomposites and its applications in different renewable energy, thermistor, actuators, thermoelectric, thermo-optic, sensor, and much more applications in electronic industry. In ceramic materials, the properties are controlled by doping and composition, but the grain size and the porosity of the sintered ceramics also play essential roles. The latter features depend on the method of fabrication. The end-user requirements define the optimum physical and...
