Biographical note
Luca Spiridigliozzi is a Post-doc Researcher and Lecturer at University of Cassino and Southern Lazio (Italy) in the field of Materials Science and Engineering, and a freelance scientific consultant for the industrial sector. His main research areas are: Fuel Cells, Rare Earths-based Materials, Catalysts and Entropy-Stabilized Materials. Even at a young age, he has published more than 40 scientific papers on international peer-reviewed journals and a monograph entitled “Doped-Ceria Electrolytes: Synthesis, Sintering and Characterization”.
"Order from Chaos: Theoretical Principles and Practical Aspects of the New Class of High-Entropy Materials" offers a comprehensive exploration of High-Entropy Materials, a novel class of materials characterized by complex compositions and unexpected properties. The book delves into the fundamental principles underlying the formation and stabilization of differently structured High-Entropy Ceramics, presenting a detailed analysis of their main physical and technological properties. Moreover, the book discusses the challenges and future prospects of High-Entropy Ceramics as well as their potential applications in various industrial sectors, making it a useful resource for researchers and engineers in the field of advanced ceramics.
