Luminescent Ceramics: Fundamentals, Properties, Processing and Applications provides a detailed review of luminescent ceramic materials for lighting, dosimetry and security. The book’s chapters cover oxide, nitride and fluoride phosphors, garnet transparent ceramics, oxynitride and BeO ceramics, doped MgAl2O4 ceramics for dosimetry and novel thermo-luminescent ceramics for light emitting devices and security applications. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the unique possibilities offered by ceramic materials in the field of light emission and applications. It will be an essential reference resource for all researchers working in the area of luminescent materials.
