This lecture note
covers all the essential issues that need to be understood by an engineer
concerning the interplay between materials, structure, and properties.
Issues such as metallurgy, crystal physics, and Neumann's symmetry principle
are dealt with in detail. Equilibrium thermodynamics, neutron diffraction,
and spectroscopy are also touched on, with all discussions on the major
classes of materials and the emerging field of nanostructured materials.
Focusing on practical applications, it also takes into discussion the most
recent concepts, like Moore's Law and their implications to materials
engineering. Dedicated to the students and professionals in engineering,
this note establishes a scientific basis in choosing and performing the
materials.

This University of York course
revolves around various issues concerning inorganic materials chemistry-
synthesis and characterization of solid-state materials. The course teaches the
methods of synthesis and analyses of inorganic compounds. It also covers the key
structural properties of solids. This book is published on magnetism,
specifically cooperative magnetism and dielectric properties describing
interactions between solids and electric fields. It also dwells on
superconductivity, one of the most important phenomena for materials science and
technology. This resource is appropriate for students and researchers who are
interested in the chemistry of inorganic materials as applied in electronics,
energy storage, and magnetic materials.
