Among the topics discussed are diffusion mechanisms in transition metal oxides, shortcircuit diffusion processes in oxidation films, aspects of the reliability of ceramics, dislocation dissociation in MgO(n)Al2O3 spinel, metal colloids in oxides, special grain boundaries in alumina, the effect of ionizing radiation on Ni-doped MgO, HgCdTe photoplasticity, ion implantation in LiNbO3, refractory materials for high temperature thermoelectric energy conversion, and physical structure and the electrochromic effect in tungsten oxide films. Also discussed are the sinterability of agglomerated powders, the hydrothermal preparation and sintering of fine ceramic powders, plasma sintering of ceramics, the densification of shock-treated Al oxide and Al nitride, TEM of shock-modified and annealed rutile, advances in solid state laser materials, and the use of structural ceramics in advanced heat engines.
