Download or read book Synthesis, Properties, and Crystal Chemistry of Perovskite-Based Materials written by Winnie Wong-Ng and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of ceramic materials with a perovskite type structure islarge and of considerable technological importance due to theirrich crystal chemistry and structure-property relationships.Applications include multilayer capacitators, piezoelectrictransducers, PTC thermistors, electrooptical modulators, opticalswitches, dielectric resonators, thick film resistors, electronicsensors, electrorestrictive actuators, magnetic bubble memorydevices, laser host materials, ferromagnetic materials, refractoryelectrodes, second harmonic generators, batteries, ceramicelectrodes, thermoelectric devices, and high temperaturesuperconductors. This volume contains papers on the research and development of newperovskite materials for various applications including doping ofexisting perovskite materials as well as processing for improvedproperties.
