Architectured Materials for the Control of Radiative Heat Transfer

This book is part of a four-volume set designed to provide students, engineers, and researchers with advanced knowledge for the design and development of architectured materials engineered to control radiative heat transfer in energy-related applications. The series is based on 14 written courses delivered during the CNRS thematic school MATTER (Architectured Materials for the Control of Radiative Heat Transfer: From Material Elaboration Processes to Industrial Applications), held from May 10-15, 2022, and organized by the French research network TAMARYS. This third volume focuses on the elaboration of architectured materials through ceramic and thin film processes. It provides an in-depth view of shaping and sintering mechanisms, ceramic additive manufacturing, and thin film deposition techniques, with the objective of tailoring radiative and thermal properties through micro- and meso-structural control. By linking processing parameters to structural evolution and resulting properties, the book offers essential knowledge for designing materials suitable for industrial applications where radiative heat transfer dominates.
