Summary

Intended to serve as lecture material for courses involving preparative solid-state chemistry, Synthesis of Inorganic Materials offers clear and detailed descriptions on how to prepare materials and alloys that exhibit important optical, magnetic, and electrical properties on a laboratory scale. This reference provides practical experience covering a wide range of preparative methods and can be read as separate, independent chapters or as a unified coherent body of work. Questions at the end of each chapter encourage the reader to search the literature, and an accompanying solutions manual and website are available.

Author Biography

Terence Warner was born and brought up in south-west England, a region renowned for its classical geology and unusual mineralization. He read chemistry at the University of York. After graduating, he was awarded a postgraduate diploma in mineral engineering, and a doctorate for his thesis on extractive metallurgy from the University of Leeds. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, and has held research posts at the Universities of Cambridge and Leeds, and at the Max-Planck-Institute for Solid State Research, Stuttgart. He is currently Associate Professor of Materials Chemistry at the University of Southern Denmark. tew@kbm.sdu.dk
