Book description
The ideal addition to the companion volume on fundamentals,
methodologies, and applications, this second volume combines fundamental
information with an overview of the role of ceramic membranes,
electrodes and interfaces in this important, interdisciplinary and
rapidly developing field.
Written primarily for specialists working in solid state
electrochemistry, this first comprehensive handbook on the topic focuses
on the most important developments over the last decade, as well as the
methodological and theoretical aspects and practical applications. This
makes the contents equally of interest to material, physical and
industrial scientists, and to physicists.
Also available as a two-volume set. Vladislav Kharton is a principal
investigator at the Department of Ceramics and Glass Engineering,
University of Aveiro (Portugal). Having received his doctoral degree in
physical chemistry from the Belarus State University in 1993, he has
published over 280 scientific papers in international SCI journals,
including 10 reviews, and coauthored over 40 papers in other refereed
journals and volumes, 3 books and 2 patents. He is a topical editor of
the Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry, regional editor of Recent
Patents on Material Science, and member of the editorial boards of
Materials Letters, The Open Condensed Matter Physics Journal, and
Processing and Application of Ceramics. In 2004, he received the
Portuguese Science Foundation prize for Scientific Excellence.
