Book Description
L'électrochimie des solides dont l'essor a débuté dans les années 1950 poursuit son développement avec, récemment, les piles à combustible. Cette discipline repose fortement sur la synthèse et caractérisation de matériaux utilisés dans des dispositifs électrochimiques, les électrolytes et les électrodes. Pour les premiers, les caractéristiques structurales et les propriétés de transport ionique sont déterminantes : pour les seconds, la conductivité électrique, la cinétique des réactions d'électrodes et la stabilité de l'interface électrode/électrolyte sont les thèmes critiques. Ce livre d'exercices complète le livre de référence Electrochimie des solides (C. Déportes et Al) paru dans la même collection. Il comprend des rappels de cours, des exercices résolus avec une centaine d'illustrations, un glossaire et une bibliographie qui facilitent l'appropriation des connaissances. Le lecteur pourra ainsi accroître son expertise sur la notation des défauts dans les cristaux, l'évolution de la stoechiométrie, les mesures électrochimiques et leurs applications. Abdelkader Hammou est professeur honoraire à l'Université Joseph Fourier de Grenoble (UJF) l'auteur de différents ouvrages de chimie, dont Electrochimie des solides. Il est spécialiste des propriétés électriques des cristaux ioniques. Samuel Georges est maître de conférence à l'IUT 1 de l'Université Joseph Fourier. Ses recherches portent sur les propriétés électriques des céramiques et leurs applications dans le domaine de l'énergie.
Flexoelectricity in Liquid Crystals
Author: Agnes BukaPublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 1848167997
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
The book intends to give a state-of-the-art overview of flexoelectricity, a linear physical coupling between mechanical (orientational) deformations and electric polarization, which is specific to systems with orientational order, such as liquid crystals. Chapters written by experts in the field shed light on theoretical as well as experimental aspects of research carried out since the discovery of flexoelectricity. Besides a common macroscopic (continuum) description the microscopic theory of flexoelectricity is also addressed. Electro-optic effects due to or modified by flexoelectricity as well as various (direct and indirect) measurement methods are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the role of flexoelectricity in pattern-forming instabilities. While the main focus of the book lies in flexoelectricity in nematic liquid crystals, peculiarities of other mesophases (bent-core systems, cholesterics, and smectics) are also reviewed. Flexoelectricity has relevance to biological (living) systems and can also offer possibilities for technical applications. The basics of these two interdisciplinary fields are also summarized.

Solid State Electrochemistry I
Author: Vladislav V. KhartonPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 3527627871
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 527
Book Description
The only comprehensive handbook on this important and rapidly developing topic combines fundamental information with a brief overview of recent advances in solid state electrochemistry, primarily targeting specialists working in this scientific field. Particular attention is focused on the most important developments performed during the last decade, methodological and theoretical aspects of solid state electrochemistry, as well as practical applications. The highly experienced editor has included chapters with critical reviews of theoretical approaches, experimental methods and modeling techniques, providing definitions and explaining relevant terminology as necessary. Several other chapters cover all the key groups of the ion-conducting solids important for practice, namely cationic, protonic, oxygen-anionic and mixed conductors, but also conducting polymer and hybrid materials. Finally, the whole is rounded off by brief surveys of advances in the fields of fuel cells, solid-state batteries, electrochemical sensors, and other applications of ion-conducting solids. Due to the very interdisciplinary nature of this topic, this is of great interest to material scientists, polymer chemists, physicists, and industrial scientists, too.

Book Description
Global warming, shortage of low-cost oil resources and the increasing demand for energy are currently controlling the world's economic expansion while often opposing desires for sustainable and peaceful development. In this context, atomic energy satisfactorily fulfills the criteria of low carbon gas production and high overall yield. However, in the absence of industrial fast-breeders the use of nuclear fuel is not optimal, and the production of high activity waste materials is at a maximum. These are the principal reasons for the development of a new, fourth generation of nuclear reactors, minimizing the undesirable side-effects of current nuclear energy production technology while increasing yields by increasing operation temperatures and opening the way for the industrial production of hydrogen through the decomposition of water. The construction and use of such reactors is hindered by several factors, including performance limitations of known structural materials, particularly if the life of the projected systems had to extend over the periods necessary to achieve low costs (at least 60 years). This book collects lectures and seminars presented at the homonymous NATO ASI held in autumn 2007 at the Institut d’Etudes Scientifiques in Cargèse, France. The adopted approach aims at improving and coordinating basic knowledge in materials science and engineering with specific areas of condensed matter physics, the physics of particle/matter interaction and of radiation damage. It is our belief that this methodology is crucially conditioning the development and the industrial production of new structural materials capable of coping with the requirements of these future reactors.
Nonlinear Optical Materials

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Mathematical methods play a significant role in the rapidly growing field of nonlinear optical materials. This volume discusses a number of successful or promising contributions. The overall theme of this volume is twofold: (1) the challenges faced in computing and optimizing nonlinear optical material properties; and (2) the exploitation of these properties in important areas of application. These include the design of optical amplifiers and lasers, as well as novel optical switches. Research topics in this volume include how to exploit the magnetooptic effect, how to work with the nonlinear optical response of materials, how to predict laser-induced breakdown in efficient optical devices, and how to handle electron cloud distortion in femtosecond processes.
