Special Issue of the Professional Committee of Key Materials and Technology for Electronic Components (PC-KMTEC)

Dear Colleague,

This Special Issue is dedicated to publishing high-quality and original research in the field of Ceramic Materials and it is promoted by the Professional Committee of Key Materials and Technology for Electronic Components (PC-KMTEC).

Electronic components and microsystems are applied widely in telecommunication, energy, and sensor fields. Additionally, the high-performance dielectric and semiconductive ceramics of these components and microsystems are required for their application. Therefore, this Special Issue will cover the investigation of dielectric and semiconductive ceramics and their scientific progress, including but not limited to, microwave dielectric ceramics, ferroelectric ceramics, piezoelectric ceramics, thermoelectric ceramics, pyroelectric ceramics, sensitive ceramics, transparent ceramics, etc.

It is our pleasure to invite professionals from the industrial sector, academic institutions and research centers from around the world to submit their contributions to this Special Issue.
