Architectured Materials for the Control of Radiative Heat Transfer : Processes for the Development of Architectured Materials with Controlled Radiative and Thermal Properties

This book is part of a four-volume set designed to provide students, engineers, and researchers with advanced knowledge for the design and development of architectured materials engineered to control radiative heat transfer in energy-related applications.

The series is based on 14 written courses delivered during the CNRS thematic school MATTER (Architectured Materials for the Control of Radiative Heat Transfer: From Material Elaboration Processes to Industrial Applications), held from May 10–15, 2022, and organized by the French research network TAMARYS. This third volume focuses on the elaboration of architectured materials through ceramic and thin film processes.

It provides an in-depth view of shaping and sintering mechanisms, ceramic additive manufacturing, and thin film deposition techniques, with the objective of tailoring radiative and thermal properties through micro- and meso-structural control.

By linking processing parameters to structural evolution and resulting properties, the book offers essential knowledge for designing materials suitable for industrial applications where radiative heat transfer dominates.
