Engineering applications of electronic, magnetic, optical materials

This book explores the potential of magnetic superconductors in storage systems, specifically focusing on superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) systems and using the Spanish electricity system, controlled by Red Eléctrica de España (REE), as an example.

The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic costs associated with the manufacture and maintenance of SMES systems, as well as a regulatory analysis for their implementation in the complex Spanish electrical system

Peter Gross stellt die Synthesen und Kristallzucht der ersten teils protonierten Alkalimetall-Borosulfate sowie Erdalkalimetall-Borosulfate beispielhaft für Kalium- und Bariumverbindungen vor. Er erläutert praktische Aspekte der anspruchsvollen Probenpräparation, Strukturaufklärung und Bestimmung der Reinheit. Der Autor diskutiert anschließend die Ergebnisse, systematisiert und ordnet die Verbindungen in die Systematik silicatanaloger Verbindungen ein, um die einzigartige Stellung dieser neue

Die Organische Elektronik ist ein noch junges Technologiefeld, das so unterschiedliche Anwendungen wie Leuchtmittel, Photovoltaik, gedruckte Elektronik und Batterien umfasst. Der Ersatz anorganischer durch organische Materialien in elektronischen Bauteilen, besonders zur Umwandlung von Licht in elektrischen Strom (Photovoltaik) und umgekehrt von elektrischem Strom in Licht (Leuchtdioden), verspricht grundlegende Vorteile in ökonomischer und ökologischer Hinsicht, aber auch hinsichtlich der An

The book systematically accounts for the scientific and technological problems of nanostructured silicon in the form of porous and black silicon.  Nanostructured silicon is currently a pioneer research topic worldwide due to its enormous potential applications for modern electronic devices, such as sensitive photodetectors, solar cells, biochemical sensors, hydrogen generators, and display devices. The main structural modifications of this nanomaterial are porous and black silicon. Porou
