Extract from the Foreword:
“I am honored to have been invited to write a Foreword to the Handbook of Visual Display Technology, a monumental work indeed!…This book, to the best of my knowledge, is the first of its kind….The [...]
This book summarises recent progress in the science and technology of rare-earth doped nitrides, providing a snapshot of the field at a critical point in its development.
Improved theoretical understanding of the behaviour of f-electrons in solids, driven by accelerating computational capability, has coincided with an improved ability of crystal growers to incorporate rare earth elements [...]
This book was born with the aim of increasing the awareness of the wide range of properties of ferroelectric materials among the different communities working on and with piezoelectric ceramic materials and devices based on these.
Ceramics are key materials in a large percentage of devices using piezoelectricity in myriads of applications. This well-known fact is [...]
