Electron microscopy studies in electrical ceramics: Dielectric composites and high critical temperature superconductors

This thesis is principally concerned with the microstructural characterization of dielectric composites in the system BaTiO$\sb3$-NaNbO$\sb3$ by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), with the expressed purpose of determining the interrelationships that exist between chemical composition and thermal processing conditions on microstructure development and dielectric properties. The investigation was also extended to recent developments in high T$\sb{\rm c}$ ceramic superconductors in the Bi-Ca-Sr-Cu oxide system.
