"Stoichiometry and Materials Science - When numbers matter" ed. by Alessio Innocenti and Norlida Kamarulzaman

The aim of this book is to provide an overview on the importance of stoichiometry in the materials science field. It presents a collection of selected research articles and reviews providing up-to-date information related to stoichiometry at various levels. Though specifically addressed to readers with a background in physical science, this book will be of interest to researchers working in materials science, engineering and technology.

The book has been divided in multiple sections, each for a specific field of applications.
The first two sections introduce the role of stoichiometry in nanotechnology and defect chemistry, providing examples of state-of-the-art technologies. Section three and four are focused on intermetallic compounds and metal oxides. Section five describes the importance of stoichiometry in electrochemical applications. In section six new strategies for solid phase synthesis are reported, while a cross sectional approach to the influence of stoichiometry in energy production is the topic of the last section.
