Functional oxides have a wide variety of applications in the electronic industry. The discovery of new metal oxides with interesting and useful properties continues to drive much research in chemistry, physics, and materials science. <p>In <i>Functional Oxides</i> five topical areas have been selected to illustrate the importance of metal oxides in modern materials chemistry:</p> <ul> <li>Noncentrosymmetric Inorganic Oxide Materials</li> <li>Geometrically Frustrated Magnetic Materials</li> <li>Lithium Ion Conduction in Oxides</li> <li>Thermoelectric Oxides</li> <li>Transition Metal Oxides – Magnetoresistance and Half-Metallicity</li> </ul> <p>The contents highlight structural chemistry, magnetic and electronic properties, ionic conduction and other emerging areas of importance, such as thermoelectricity and spintronics.</p> <p><i>Functional Oxides</i> covers these complex concepts in a clear and accessible manner providing an excellent introduction to this broad subject area.</p>
