Product Description
Product Description
Electroceramics, Materials, Properties, Applications, Second Edition provides a comprehensive treatment of the many aspects of ceramics and their electrical applications. The fundamentals of how electroceramics function are carefully introduced with their properties and applications also considered. Starting from elementary principles, the physical, chemical and mathematical background of the subject are discussed and wherever appropriate, a strong emphasis is placed on the relationship between microstructire and properties. The Second Edition has been fully revised and updated, building on the foundation of the earlier book to provide a concise text for all those working in the growing field of electroceramics.
- fully revised and updated to include the latest technological changes and developments in the field
- includes end of chapter problems and an extensive bibliography
- an Invaluable text for all Materials Science students.
- a useful reference for physicists, chemists and engineers involved in the area of electroceramics.
From the Author
One of the authors (AJM) has prepared comprehensive 'Guidance Notes' to assist in addressing the problems set in the textbook. Information regarding availability can be obtained from the editor, Dr Andrew Slade at aslade@wiley.co.uk.

Suitable for all with an interest in electroceramics,
By A Customer
This review is from: Electroceramics: Materials, Properties, Applications (Paperback)
This is a first class book on electroceramics. It is very well balanced covering theory, properties, practical applications and manufacture of electroceramics. There are excellent illustrations and diagrams. The theory is not too mathematical and would be understood by students as well as professionals. The information on the use of electroceramics in electronic devices is particularly valuable. Certainly a must for all in the physical sciences and engineering with an interest in electroceramics.

An excellent undergraduate-level textbook in electroceramics,
By "akdogan" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Electroceramics: Materials, Properties, Applications (Paperback)
The electroceramics community, in general, has been suffering from a lack of good textbooks which cover all major fields of interest of the subject in a clear and comprehensive manner. The book by Moulson and Herbert is an outstanding exception to that. It can conveniently be used as a senior undergraduate or a first year graduate text. The first 2 chapters of the book summarize the prerequisite background needed in the solid state sciences and ceramic/materials processing, respectively. In the following chapters, a wide range of materials such as conductors, linear dielectrics, piezoelectrics, magnetic materials etc. are presented. The text is easy to read. The underlying physical principles of each subject are well blended with the materials related phenomena, thus providing the the reader with the "broader picture" in a concise fashion. The book contains well-chosen self study problems at the end of each chapter which address practical engineering problems as well as fundamental principles. It is my hope that more books like this will come along soon so that the materials science and engineering students are as well served as their peers in other disciplines in the sciences and engineering. I highly recommend this book for those who are seeking a good textbook and/or for those who would like to self-study the subject.

Electroceramics:Materials, Properties and Applications,
By R. J. N. Quintero "RN" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Electroceramics: Materials, Properties, Applications, 2nd Edition (Paperback)
Good book. It has been reviewed by many important scientists and engineers of the field.
It have a nice introduction to dielectrics and semiconductors from a solid state physics point of view with may help the engineers and students to find practic use of the solid state theory. This book takes the reader into a: 1)Fundamental undestanding of ceramics for electronic applications 2)Complete review of processing, applications and properties of dielectric and semiconductor materials. A gentle introduction of field's terms 3)Serve as an introductory guide for post graduate students |
