Structure and Concentration of Point Defects in Selected Spinels and Simple Oxides is a comprehensive book that presents diagrams and numerical data of important properties of spinels and oxides based on experimental results published in the literature. The values of many parameters presented in this book can be used for optimization of preparation of new systems, to predict the practical properties of these systems. Applications of this book include electronic devices, new metallic alloys with improved corrosion resistance, new ceramic materials, and novel catalysts, particularly for oxygen evolution and reduction reactions.

The book is organized into four comprehensive parts. The first part discusses the problem of the structure and concentration of ionic and electronic defects in magnetite and hausmannite, pure and doped with M3+ cations. The second part focuses on spinels exhibiting magnetic properties and high electric conductance. The third part includes 236 figures presenting equilibrium diagrams of point defects and other useful details related to stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric spinels and oxides. The fourth part details novel methods of calculation of equilibria involving point defects.

Additional features of this book include:

Includes 236 figures presenting equilibrium diagrams of point defects and other useful details related to stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric spinels and oxides.

Details novel methods of calculation of equilibria involving point defects.

Collects scattered data published in nearly 500 original articles since the 1950s on spinels and oxides in one useful volume.

Building upon the data presented in this book, it is an indispensable reference for material scientists and engineers developing new metal or oxide-based systems. With the help of this book, they can easily calculate other useful parameters and compare the properties of different materials to select the best candidates for an intended use.
