Author and editor Mathieu Marrony has gathered well-known experts to provide an overview of the field of proton-conducting ceramics at its present standing-from fundamentals to applied research. The book provides a useful source of introductory and tutorial material, factual information, parameters, and materials examples, and reference to a wide range of original research and review articles. - Prof. Truls Norby, University of Oslo, Norway This book summarizes various aspects of proton-conducting ceramics, from fundamentals and materials to characterization techniques, fabrication processes and applications. It highlights the challenges and merits of the various applications, while depicting an encouraging prospect for proton-conducting ceramics with suggestions for the path forwards. - Dr. Sandrine Ricote, Colorado School of Mines, USA The book starts from the accepted year of birth of proton-conducting ceramics, 1981, successfully placing the subject in context of earlier knowledge. The chapters lead the reader through the crystal structure and microstructure of the materials, the processes that generate the protons, the mechanisms that allow them to move within the crystal lattices, and the applications of proton-conducting ceramics. This thoughtful and readable monograph gives the reader a look into past, present, and future of a fascinating group of materials whose applications will, I believe, be with us within a few years. - Dr. Nikolaos Bonanos, Technical University of Denmark, Denmark
