Synopsis:

Crystal structures, chemical composition and characteristic electronic properties of oxides is presented. Namely electronic and thermal transport, specific heat, thermoelectric coefficient, magnetic interactions and long range magnetic order are discussed. Phase transitions as a consequence of mutual interplay of lattice, transport and magnetic effects and metal-insulator transition tuned via chemical composition and temperature are documented. Orbital, spin and charge ordered (disordered) states are exemplified using the salient oxide families - colossal magnetoresistance manganites, high temperature superconducting cuprates and cobalt oxide thermoelectrics.

Requirements:

11TPL1, 11SPL1
