Advanced Ceramics for Energy Storage; Thermoelectrics and Photonics describes recent progress in ceramic synthesis and applications in the areas of rechargeable batteries; capacitors; fuel cells; ferroelectrics; thermoelectrics; and inorganic luminescence materials. Both fundamental scientific advancements and technological breakthroughs in terms of new ceramic chemistries; new synthesis methodologies; and new applications are discussed in detail. The latest developments in advanced electrodes; ionic conductors; catalysts; thermoelectric ceramics; and luminescent powders/ceramics and their applications are also covered. With its focus on energy-related applications; the book will be a valuable reference resource for new researchers; academics; and postgraduate students who are interested in delving deeper into energy-related materials research; in particular; the areas of electronic and optical ceramics and their potential applications.
