In recent years, numerical simulation and modeling of materials coupling multiple-length scales has received much attention. While challenges remain, significant advances have been made. An equally important area of materials modeling, one that has received much less attention, is the integration of multiple physical phenomena for simulation of complex materials behavior. This volume offers a review of current capabilities in materials modeling and simulation that (1) bridge length scales and time scales and (2) couple a variety of physical phenomena to either provide insight into fundamental aspects of materials structure or predict materials behavior. By bringing together the materials modeling community from around the world, the volume provides a current snapshot of the field. Topics include: multiscale modeling; mechanical properties; transport phenomena; phase transformations; microstructure and its evolution; atomistic modeling; and materials structure and properties.
Steels and computer-based modelling are fast growing fields in materials science as well as structural engineering, demonstrated by the large amount of recent literature. Steels: From Materials Science to Structural Engineering combines steels research and model development, including the application of modelling techniques in steels. The latest research includes structural engineering modelling, and novel, prototype alloy steels such as heat-resistant steel, nitride-strengthened ferritic/martensitic steel and low nickel maraging steel. Researchers studying steels will find the topics vital to their work. Materials experts will be able to learn about steels used in structural engineering as well as modelling and apply this increasingly important technique in their steel materials research and development.
Advances in nanoscale materials processing are taking place at a rapid pace via myriad paths, including lithography, production of nanoparticle assemblies, surface manipulation and many others. Several of the techniques create structures that are three-dimensional or quasi three-dimensional. Even smaller structures intended to be two-dimensional have a 'more' three-dimensional geometry as their two-dimensional feature size and layer thickness become similar. The properties of these denser assemblies are driving different applications in electronics (single-electron devices), optics (photonic crystals and switches) and elsewhere. This 2003 book provides a venue for a productive scientific and technical exchange. The result is a compilation of papers which address fundamental studies, technological advances and novel approaches to developing and processing three-dimensional nanoscale assemblies. Topics include: nanofabrication via lithographic techniques; unconventional fabrication methods of nano-structures; physics, chemistry and modeling of nanostructures; fabrication and properties of 1D nanostructures; fabrication and properties of 3D nanostructures; applications of nanostructures and devices.
The MRS Symposium Proceeding series is an internationally recognised reference suitable for researchers and practitioners.
Since its inception in the mid-twentieth century, solid-state chemistry has matured within the chemical sciences. In the same way that chemistry itself is considered a central science, solid-state chemistry is central in its many relations to physics, in particular to solid-state physics and also to materials science and engineering. There are few problems in materials science or engineering in which the preparation of the material itself is not a central issue and, more often than not, this will be a solid-state chemical problem. For these reasons, it is not surprising that in the technological development of the last century, solid-state chemistry has grown in importance. It is not only a synthesis science, it is also the science of structures, defects, stoichiometry, and physical chemical properties. Most of these are explored in the book. Topics include: metal-to-insulator transition; porous materials; dielectric materials; nanomaterials; synthesis of materials; films and catalytic materials; CMR materials; thermoelectric materials; dielectrics, catalysts, phosphors, films and properties and synthesis and crystal growth.
The objective of this 2003 volume from the Materials Research Society is twofold - to provide an overview of advances in membrane science and technology and to enhance communication among membrane researchers from a variety of disciplines including chemistry, biology, biotechnology, chemical engineering and materials science. Membranes can be used for inert or reactive separations in a variety of fields including gas purification, water treatment, energy storage and conversion, bio-technology and biomedicine. The book brings together scientists involved in the entire spectrum of modern approaches to membrane science and technology to address synthesis, characterization and transport properties and their use in established and emerging applications. Topics include: membrane synthesis and preparation; surface modification and additives; hybrid and composite membranes; membrane characterization; transport phenomena in membranes; charged membranes and ion transfer; gas permeation and separation; pervaporation and vapor permeation; dense membranes for hydrogen separation; applications in biotechnology and biomedicine; and membrane R&D for industrial and emerging applications.
This year's nitride symposium showed the scope of nitride-related advances spanning basic materials physics over process technology to high-performance devices. Progress was reported in bulk growth of GaN and AlN, growth on various substrates and substrate orientations, optical properties of InN, defect and doping analysis of p-doped GaN, and polarization properties. These led to new performance records in visible light emitter technology, i.e., higher efficiency/higher brightness, UV emitters with shorter wavelength, and UV and photo detectors. Advances in the development of nitride-based electronic devices with new heterostructure FET designs for RF power applications, including those on Si substrates and wafer fusion, are also reported. This book captures the exciting developments in this rapidly progressing field. Topics include: epitaxy - devices and defect reduction; defects and characterization; epitaxy - nonpolar orientations and alloys; optical properties; UV emitters and detectors; visible light emitters; electronic devices; characterization of defects and transport; and contacts, processing and p-type nitrides.
Progress in MOS integrated-circuit technology is largely driven by the ability to dimensionally scale the constituent components of individual devices and their associated interconnections. Given a set of materials with fixed properties, this scaling is finite and its predicted limits are rapidly approaching. The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors establishes the pace at which this scaling occurs and identifies many of the technological challenges ahead. This volume assembles representatives from the fields of materials science, physics, electrical and chemical engineering to provide an insightful review of current technology and understanding. Specifically, the intent is to discuss materials issues stemming from device scaling to sub-100nm technology nodes. Topics include: high-k characterization; atomic layer deposition; gate metal materials and integration; contacts and ultrashallow junction formation; theory and modeling and crystalline oxides for gate dielectrics.
