An intermetallic compound is a compound of specific composition between two metallic species. On a binary phase diagram, regions associated by these compounds are bounded by two phase zones. The range ...

When a cupric oxide compound is subjected to high pressure, its Cu–O–Cu bond angle widens, strengthening the magnetic interaction between the ions. Using this phenomenon, this research team ...

Including end of chapter problems, references, and a bibliography to reinforce the text, this book is about the application of thermodynamics and kinetics to solve problems within Materials Science.
