Book Description
Les nanotechnologies apportent un fort potentiel d’innovation et de rupture dans de nombreux domaines. Leurs applications pour l’énergie en est un champ important, car la synthèse et la structuration des nanomatériaux y ouvrent des voies de progrès notables. Si divers ouvrages décrivent les innovations promises par les nanotechnologies sur des thématiques scientifiques générales ou spécialisées, très peu abordent le chemin qui va des nouvelles propriétés aux applications pour l’énergie électrique et ses usages. Cet ouvrage présente, sur des bases scientifiques solides, les apports des nanotechnologies et plus particulièrement des nanomatériaux aux enjeux de la production d’électricité et de ses usages. Après un panorama des effets physiques qui peuvent être exploités à ces échelles pour améliorer les propriétés des matériaux ou leur fonctionnalité, leur application à la production d’électricité, à son stockage, à ses usages ainsi qu’au traitement de questions environnementales est abordée. Elle conduit à explorer les domaines de l’électrochimie, du photovoltaïque, de la thermoélectricité, des propriétés mécaniques et thermiques des matériaux ou encore des membranes et des surfaces ultrahydrophobes. Chaque chapitre constitue une monographie exhaustive enrichie d’une abondante iconographie et d’une bibliographie très complète. Les meilleurs experts de chaque domaine ont été réunis, faisant de cet ouvrage une référence incontournable. Au confluent de plusieurs disciplines et en prise directe sur un vaste champ d’applications, ce livre s’adresse à un large public : ingénieurs et chercheurs, étudiants des écoles d’ingénieurs ou des universités aux niveaux licence et master.

Book Description
This book provides a concise and inexpensive introduction for an undergraduate course in glass science and technology. The level of the book has deliberately been maintained at the introductory level to avoid confusion of the student by inclusion of more advanced material, and is unique in that its text is limited to the amount suitable for a one term course for students in materials science, ceramics or inorganic chemistry. The contents cover the fundamental topics of importance in glass science and technology, including glass formation, crystallization, phase separation and structure of glasses. Additional chapters discuss the most important properties of glasses, including discussion of physical, optical, electrical, chemical and mechanical properties. A final chapter provides an introduction to a number of methods used to form technical glasses, including glass sheet, bottles, insulation fibre, optical fibres and other common commercial products. In addition, the book contains discussion of the effects of phase separation and crystallization on the properties of glasses, which is neglected in other texts. Although intended primarily as a textbook, Introduction to Glass Science and Technology will also be invaluable to the engineer or scientist who desires more knowledge regarding the formation, properties and production of glass.

Book Description
Sol-Gel Techniques for Glass Producers and Users provides technological information, descriptions and characterizations of prototypes, or products already on the market, and illustrates advantages and disadvantages of the sol-gel process in comparison to other methods. The first chapter entitled "Wet Chemical Technology" gives a summary of the basic principles of the sol-gel chemistry. The most promising applications are related to coatings. Chapter 2 describes the various "Wet Chemical Coating Technologies" from glass cleaning to many deposition and post-coating treatment techniques. These include patterning of coatings through direct or indirect techniques which have became very important and for which the sol-gel processing is particularly well adapted. Chapter 3 entitled "Bulk Glass Technologies" reports on the preparation of special glasses for different applications. Chapter 4 entitled "Coatings and Materials Properties" describes the properties of the different coatings and the sol-gel materials, fibers and powders. The chapter also includes a section dedicated to the characterization techniques especially applied to sol-gel coatings and products.

Book Description
Ellipsometry is an experimental technique for determining the thickness and optical properties of thin films. It is ideally suited for films ranging in thickness from sub-nanometer to several microns. Spectroscopic measurements have greatly expanded the capabilities of this technique and introduced its use into all areas where thin films are found: semiconductor devices, flat panel and mobile displays, optical coating stacks, biological and medical coatings, protective layers, and more. While several scholarly books exist on the topic, this book provides a good introduction to the basic theory of the technique and its common applications. The target audience is not the ellipsometry scholar, but process engineers and students of materials science who are experts in their own fields and wish to use ellipsometry to measure thin film properties without becoming an expert in ellipsometry itself.

Book Description
Presenting a unified approach, this book focusses on the concepts and theoretical methods that are necessary for an understanding of the physics and chemistry of the fluid state. The authors do not attempt to cover the whole field in an encyclopedic manner. Instead, important ideas are presented in a concise and rigorous style, and illustrated with examples from both simple molecular liquids and more complex soft condensed matter systems such as polymers, colloids, and liquid crystals.

Book Description
Describing progress achieved in the field of nonlinear optics and nonlinear optical materials, the Handbook treats selected topics such as photorefractive materials, third-order nonlinear optical materials and organic nonlinear optical crystals, as well as electro-optic polymers. Applications of photorefractive materials in optical memories, optical processing, and guided-wave nonlinear optics in hotorefractive waveguides are described. As light will play a more and more dominant role as an information carrier, the review of existing and new materials given here makes this a keystone book in the field.
