This volume provides a one-stop resource, compiling current research on developments in strategic materials. It is a collection of papers from The American Ceramic Society s 32nd International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites, January 27-February 1, 2008. Papers included in this issue come from five symposia: "Thermoelectric Materials for Power Conversion;" "Basic Science of Multifunctional Ceramics;" "Science of Ceramic Interfaces;" "Geopolymers;" and "Materials for Solid State Lighting." This is a valuable, up-to-date resource for researchers working in the field.Content: Chapter 1 Developments in Oxynitride Glasses: Formation, Properties and Crystallization (pages 1-10): Stuart HampshireChapter 2 Thermoelectric Properties of Ge Doped In2O3 (pages 12-23): David Berardan, Emmanuel Guilmeau, Antoine Maignan and Bernard RaveauChapter 3 Transition Metal Oxides for Thermoelectric Generation (pages 25-40): J.P.
