Transparent Ceramics

This Special Issue is dedicated to the domain of transparent ceramics (TCs); passive or active ones (owing to controlled doping-able to induce designed spectral behavior). It intends to treat topics such as the optimization of all aspects of TC fabrication-related engineering and the introduction of new processing techniques. There is also interest in studies devoted to performance level enhancement of current products (commercial and in prototype stage), relevant characterization techniques (concerning fabrication or performance estimation), and new applications. The issue also intends to honor Dr. Adrian Goldstein (former head of the Israel Ceramics and Silicates Institute) for his significant contribution to the development of the TC domain.
