Trends In Chemistry Of Materials: Selected Research Papers Of C N R Rao

By: C N R Rao

In this collection, the author has compiled a set of his papers representing some of the highlights of materials chemistry. It features a section on oxidic materials, which includes high-temperature superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance, electronic phase separation and multiferroics. The author has also included novel methods for making gallium nitride, boron nitride and such materials, by using precursors and the urea decomposition route. Moreover, there is a section dealing with open-framework and hybrid materials of which the latter has a great future since one can make use of the rigidity of inorganic structures and the functionality and flexibility of the organic residues to design materials with novel properties.

Transition Metal Oxides

By: C. N. R. Rao,B. Raveau

Transition metal oxides constitute an important class of inorganic materials with fascinating structures and properties. Many technologically important materials are oxides. The topic is hot at least because of the electronic industry (semiconductors) and the work on superconductors. The authors are worldclass highly respected scientists. Being an authored text, name recognition will be a feature for selling it. The topic has not been reviewed systematically in a long time, although review articles have appeared regularly in the literature. This monograph will provide a tutorial overview of the topic, as well as be a useful handbook/guide.
