Classification of materials[edit]
Materials are classified according to many different criteria including their
physical and chemical characteristics as well as their intended applications
whether it is thermal, optical, electrical, magnetic, or combined. As their methods
of usage dictate their physical appearance, they can be designed, tailored, and/or
prepared in many forms such as powders, thin or thick films, and plates and could
be introduced/studied in a single or multi layers. End products could be pure
materials or doped ones with most useful compounds are those with controlled added
impurities.The dopants could be added chemically or mixed and implanted physically.
In case the impurities were added chemically, the dopants/co-dopants on
substitutional/interstitial sites should be optimized and investigated thoroughly
as well as any stresses instigated by their presence within the structure; whereas
in the case of the physical mixing, the influence of the degree of heterogeneity of
the prepared hybrid composites ought to be studied.The different physical and
chemical preparation techniques can be used solely or combined including solid
state synthesis, hydrothermal, sol-gel, precipitations and coprecipitations, spin
coating, physical vapor deposition, and spray pyrolysis. Types of impurities along
with their amounts are usually dictated by types of matrices to be added to,and
their ability to maximize the desired products’ usefulness. Among the most commonly
used characterization techniques are X-ray diffraction (XRD) either single crystal
or powder, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy
(EDS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), UV-Vis
absorption Spectroscopy, Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR), and Photoluminescence
spectrometry. In addition, it is usually considered of extreme importance to find
theoretical models that can confirm and/or predict the experimental findings and
assist in discussion, assignment, and the explanation of results and outcomes.
Also, vision and room for future modification and development should always be
pinpointed. Hence, one can classify the material as a smart one if its presence can
serve multi purposes within the final product.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
