Rapid advances in complex macromolecular synthesis and the fabrication of nanostructures have provided expansive opportunities for the development of new materials with unique optical and nonlinear optical properties. Key to continual progress is the establishment of robust structure-property-processing relationships that will provide a framework to evaluate ultimate potential, articulate relevant figures of merit, and engineer materials systems for specific applications. Success necessitates interactions across diverse disciplines spanning theory, synthesis, fabrication, characterization and device evaluation for photonic applications. This book addresses the challenges associated with the synthesis, theory and characterization of new compounds and nanostructured materials that exhibit, or are formed, using unique photophysics. Topics include: nonlinear optical properties materials; nonlinear optical materials; organometallic optical materials; plasmonics; electro-optical and electronic materials; organic and hybrid light-emitting devices; nanocomposite optical materials; and organic photonic bandgap structures.

Interest in hybrid materials has accelerated recently, in particular because tailoring materials properties through organization of organic/inorganic composites at nanometer length scales is now an important focus for numerous diverse research domains. This book's objective here is to create a communal forum for researchers involved in all areas of organic/inorganic hybrid materials to share perspectives, to learn about leading-edge science and engineering occurring around the world, and to develop new ideas. The book is divided into focus areas that address synthesis and characterization methods, functional hybrid materials, hybrid materials influenced by biology, structured mesoporous materials and materials with multiscale organization. Topics include: methods of patterning hybrid materials; hybrid materials for photonic applications; mesoporous films and monoliths; biofunctional materials; layered hybrid materials; applications-oriented hybrid materials; hybrid materials for electronics, optoelectronics and semiconductor applications; methods of characterizing hybrid materials; and novel synthetic methods.

Solid-state chemistry continues to span and to spawn multiple materials research areas, attracting investigators from chemistry, condensed-matter physics, materials science and engineering, ceramics, chemical engineering, and mineralogy/geology, to name a few. The common challenge is to understand and to predict structures and properties of new materials. As with earlier volumes in this series from the Materials Research Society, the presentations here represent interdisciplinary research from around the world and explore not only recent advances in the solid-state chemistry of inorganic materials, but also their impact on commercial applications. The book covers a broad range of topics, including synthesis and characterization of novel functional materials; design and fabrication of nanostructures and nanomaterials; crystal and structural chemistry; catalysis; gas separation and storage; and magnetic and optical applications. Both theoretical and computational studies of solid-state inorganic materials are featured. Joint presentations with solid-state ionics are also particularly fruitful.
