Functional Glasses and Glass-Ceramics: Processing, Properties and Applications

Functional Glasses and Glass-Ceramics: Processing, Properties and Applicationsprovides comprehensive coverage of the current state-of-the-art on a range of material synthesis. This work discusses the functional properties and functional applications of both the oxide and non-oxide glasses and glass-ceramics, and is broken up into three distinct parts. Part I is an introduction to the basic concept of functional glasses and glass-ceramics, while Part II describes the functional glasses and glass-ceramics of oxide systems, covering functionalization of glasses by 3d transition metal ion doping, 4f rare earth metal ion doping, crystallization, laser irradiation micro fabrication, incorporation of nanometals, the incorporation of semiconductor coatings, the functionalization for biomedical applications, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) sealants, and display devices, and from waste materials. Part III describes functional glasses and glass-ceramics of non-oxide systems, covering functional chalcogenide and functional halide glasses, glass-ceramics, and functional bulk metallic glasses. The book contains future outlooks and exercises at the end of each chapter, and can be used as a reference for researchers and practitioners in the industry and those in post graduate studies. Comprehensive text that explores the field of both functional glass and glass ceramicsProvides an in-depth discussion on the definition of a functional glassIncludes discussions of advanced processing, functional properties, and functional applications of a wide array of functional glasses and glass-ceramicsWritten using a systematic approach that can only be accomplished through an authored work INDICE: Part I.
