Informationen zum Autor Taketo Sakuma and Laurel M. Sheppard are the authors of Grain Boundary Engineering in Ceramics: From Grain Boundary Phenomena to Grain Boundary Quantum Structures, published by Wiley. Klappentext One of the key technologies needed to understand and develop the mechanical and electrical properties of ceramics is the field of grain boundary engineering. This book covers new developments in this important field and addresses topics from grain boundary phenomena to grain boundary quantum structures, including the development of new techniques such as multifunctional electronmicroscopes, various kinds of spectroscopic analysis, and first principles calculations. Proceedings of the Japan Fine Ceramics Center Workshop, March 15-17, 2000, in Nagoya, Japan; Ceramic Transactions, Volume 118.
