| Course Description | This course covers a broad scope of the electrical properties of ceramics: ionic conductivity, dielectricity, piezoelectricity, ferroelectricity, magnetism, and superconductivity. These properties are based on distinct fundamentals: defect chemistry (ionic conductor), forced polarization (dielectrics), spontaneous polarization (ferroelectrics), and electron spin (magnetism). |
| Laboratory | Cer E 415 consists of labs covering ionic conduction, ferroelectrics, piezoelectrics, and magnetics. |
| Keywords | ionic conduction, dielectrics, ferroelectrics, piezoelectrics, pyroelectrics, magnetics. |
