In this interview, AZoM talks to Dr. Carl Frahme of The American Ceramic Society about his "Introduction to Ceramic Science, Technology, and Manufacturing" course. I have been active in the ceramics ...

For the first time, researchers have created a nanocomposite of ceramics and a two-dimensional material, opening the door for new designs of nanocomposites with such applications as solid-state ...

A new zentropy theory explains the superior light manipulation in transparent ceramics, paving the way for advanced, ...

Penn State scientists discovered seven new ceramics by simply removing oxygen—opening a path to materials once beyond reach.

Highly competitive & one of only two CE programs in the nation of its kind. If you envision a professional career in applied science and engineering with a focus on ceramics and related materials, the ...

Glass and glass-ceramic systems have long been central to the development of photonics. Their high optical transmittance, tunable refractive indices, and ...

Ceramics are famous for being hard but easy to break. Now, researchers have demonstrated that adding carbon nanotubes to a ceramic material can nearly triple its resistance to fracturing. Since carbon ...

Researchers have observed a way that the brittle nature of ceramics can be overcome as they sustain heavy loads, leading to more resilient structures such as aircraft engine blade coatings and dental ...

Columbus, Ohio – From cutting-edge photovoltaic power generation systems to substrates for repairing or even growing new human tissue, glass-based materials are playing an expanding role in the ...

Everyone with kitchen experience knows how easy it is to break a ceramic plate. Less well known is the capability of some ceramic materials to become soft and pliable when heated. For years, materials ...
