This book was released on 1990-02 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive treatment of the many aspects of ceramics that are important because of their electrical applications. Describes the fundamentals of how electroceramics function, how they are made, their properties, and their applications, starting from elementary principles, and including the necessary physical, chemical, and mathematical background. Whenever appropriate, a strong emphasis is placed on the relationship between microstructure and properties. Outlines solid state physics, beginning with atomic structure and progressing to the principles underlying the main categories of electroceramics. For undergraduates in materials science.
