This book describes clearly various research topics investigated
for these 10 years in the Research Center of Advanced Structural
and Functional Materials Design in Osaka University, Japan. Every
chapter is aimed at understanding most advanced researches in
materials science by describing its fundamentals and details as
much as possible. Since both general explanations and cutting-edge
commentaries are given for each topic in this book, it provides a
lot of useful information for ordinary readers as well as materials
scientists & engineers who wish to understand the future
development in materials science fields of metals, alloys,
ceramics, semiconductors etc. In particular, this book deals with
special fusion area of structural and functional materials such as
medical bone materials, of which contents are very unique features
as materials science textbook.
This book brings together an emerging consensus on our
understanding of the complex functional materials including
ferroics, perovskites, multiferroics, CMR and high-temperature
superconductors. The common theme is the existence of many
competing ground states and frustration as a collusion of spin,
charge, orbital and lattice degrees of freedom in the presence of
disorder and (both dipolar and elastic) long-range forces. An
important consequence of the complex unit cell and the competing
interactions is that the emergent materials properties are very
sensitive to external fields thus rendering these materials with
highly desirable, technologically important applications enabled by
cross-response.
