Conference Programme
Ceramic Processing and Basic Science
Ceramic processing is fundamental to the development and exploitation of established and novel Electroceramics. This symposium will focus on recent advances in powder and ceramic processing and the basic science of functional ceramics. Contributions are invited on any aspect of ceramic processing, characterisation or the basic science of the ceramics. The themes will include, but will not be limited to:
- Powder synthesis; colloidal processes, powder characterisation
- Shaping, forming and compaction
- Thick film processing
- Non-conventional processing routes
- Sintering processes
- Microwave, laser, plasma and SHS sintering
- Microstructure development
- Rapid Prototyping
- Reaction processes and kinetics
- Controlling structure, shape and properties
- Phase transformations
- Crystallography and crystal chemistry
Thin Films
The theme focuses on functional thin film materials. Thin films are be used in devices but they can also assist our understanding of Materials systems by providing carefully controlled structures that are amenable to analysis by a range of techniques. Low-dimensional materials such as thin films, nanocrystals, nanowires, and nanotubes are at the forefront of materials research. Novel structures composed of multilayers offer new insights into unusual materials’ systems. The physical, chemical and electromagnetic phenomena observed in these systems suggest new application areas by combining e.g.ferroelectric and magnetic properties, or ionic and electronic conductivities.
- Thin film deposition techniques (sputtering, CVD, PLD, solution methods etc)
- Low dimensional structures(e.g., heterostructures, anisotropic shapes, and multilayered films)
- Substrate film interface issues - Misfit stresses and relaxation mechanisms in oxide films
- Tailoring nanostructures through novel processing
- Ferroelectric, piezoelectric, magnetic and multiferroic films
- Metallization for thin film circuits
- Lithography for functional thin films
- Characterisation of thin films (X-Ray, high frequency methods, EBSD, EPMA, Raman etc)
- Applications of thin films (frequency agility microwave materials, THz imaging)
Interfaces
- Experimental Investigations of Grain Boundaries and Interfaces
- Chemistry and microstructure of Grain Boundaries
- Modelling and simulation of Interfaces
- Kinetics and Stability of Interfaces
- Electronic and Ionic Transport at interfaces
- Functional Properties of Interfaces
Modelling
Modelling is now seen as an essential part of materials development providing an important link between theory and experiment and often providing a direction for a particular experiment.
As a consequence, modelling and simulation on various length and time scales are a key part of materials’ development.
The main theme of the conference is to provide an international forum for the advances of modelling methodologies and for their applications in rapid process and material developments.
Contributions are invited for but not limited to the following topics:
- Microstructure Evolution and Microstructure-Property Relationships
- Experimental Validation of Models
- Multiscale Modelling of electroceramic materials
- Future developments mathematical Multiscale Methods
