Zusatztext the quality of the worked examples is impressive! and there can be no doubt that this book fills a large gap in the field! and will be useful to many solid-state chemists Klappentext As inorganic materials are put to more and more practical uses--mainly in electric, magnetic, and optical devices--materials scientists must have an increasingly sophisticated understanding of the chemical and physical properties of inorganic compounds. This volume--the first of its kind in twenty years--provides a unified presentation of the chemistry of non-stoichiometric compounds based on statistical thermodynamics and structural inorganic chemistry. Four modern examples of non-stoichiometric compounds--ionic conducting compounds, hydrogen absorbing alloys, magnetic materials, and electrical materials--are discussed in detail. Students and researchers in structural inorganic chemistry, crystallography, materials science, and solid state physics will find this much-needed book both practical and informative. Zusammenfassung This unified presentation of the chemistry of non-stoichiometric compounds is the first monograph on the subject for two decades. Based on statistical thermodynamics and structural inorganic chemistry, with descriptions of modern examples and applications, this will be useful to both researchers in industry and undergraduates in solid state chemistry and physics.
