In this book, the authors cover the recent progress in the
synthesis, characterization and application of various
multi-layered carbides, carbonitrides and nitrides. Moreover, the
processing and development of MXene-based composites are
elaborated, focusing on their applications and performances as
transparent conductors in environmental remediation and energy
storage systems.
This book covers the latest progress in the field of transparent
ceramics, emphasizing their processing as well as solid-state
lasers. It consists of 10 chapters covering the synthesis,
characterization and compaction, fundamentals of sintering,
densification of transparent ceramics by different methods as well
as transparent ceramic applications. This book can be used as a
reference for senior undergraduate to postgraduate students,
researchers, engineers and material scientists working in
solid-state physics.
Waste Energy Harvesting overviews the latest progress in waste
energy harvesting technologies, with specific focusing on waste
thermal mechanical energies. Thermal energy harvesting technologies
include thermoelectric effect, storage through phase change
materials and pyroelectric effect. Waste mechanical energy
harvesting technologies include piezoelectric (ferroelectric)
effect with ferroelectric materials and nanogenerators. The book
aims to strengthen the syllabus in energy, materials and physics
and is well suitable for students and professionals in the fields.
Since the discovery of graphene, it has become one of the most
widely and extensively studied materials. This book aims to
summarize the progress in synthesis, processing, characterization
and applications of a special group of nanocarbon materials derived
from graphene or graphene related derivatives by using various
strategies in different forms. More specifically, three forms of
macrosized materials are presented, i.e., one-dimension or 1D
(fibers, wires, yarns, streads, etc.), two-dimension or 2D (films,
membranes, papers, sheets, etc.) and three-dimension or 3D (bulk,
hydrogels, aerogels, foams, sponges, etc.). Seven chapters are
included with the first chapter serving to introduce the concept,
definition, and nomenclature of graphene, graphene oxide and their
derivatives. The main topics are covered in Chapters 2-7. Although
they have coherent connections, each chapter of them is designed
such that they can be studied independently. The target readers of
this book include undergraduate students, postgraduate students,
researchers, designers, engineers, professors, and program/project
managers from the fields of materials science and engineering,
applied physics, chemical engineering, biomaterials, materials
manufacturing and design, institutes, and research founding
agencies.
New materials hold the key to fundamental advances in energy
conversion and storage, both of which are vital in order to meet
the challenge of global warming and the finite nature of fossil
fuels. Nanomaterials in particular offer unique properties or
combinations of properties as electrodes and electrolytes in a
range of energy devices. Supercapacitors have been widely
acknowledged to be promising devices for energy storage. This book
describes the latest progress in the discovery and development of
nanoelectrolytes and nanoelectrodes for supercapacitor
applications.
