This book gives an overview on the fundamentals and recent developments in the field of luminescent materials. Starting from the definitions and properties of phosphors, novel application areas as well as spectroscopic methods for characterization will be described. The reader will benefit from the vast knowledge of the authors with backgrounds in industry as well as academia.
Borate crystals are attractive for different technological applications because of their favorable physical and chemical properties like stability and high transparency, both high thermal and non-linear optical coefficients, making them ideal active media for highly efficient solid state lasers. In this Special Issue, different aspects of multifunctional borate crystals are discussed, including ortho- and oxyorthoborates and compounds with condensed anions, as well as their nonlinear optical and laser properties and piezoelectric characteristics. For this reason, complex investigations of the phase relationships in multi-component borate melts, the study of crystal growth conditions of novel high-temperature borates, and the development of the “crystallization conditions, composition, structure, and properties” concept will provide a scientific basis for growth technologies of high performance electronic and optical devices and components with a variety of industrial, medical and many other applications. In the meantime, these relationships can help to estimate the affinity of synthetic borate materials with their natural prototypes and structural analogues.

Birthplace of the Renaissance, home of the Italian language and centre of the art world, Florence, or “The Lily” as it is known by its inhabitants, gets its name from the flower which dominates the city’s coat of arms. It is a living, breathing open-air museum: taking a walk along the Lungarno as far as Pontevecchio and stopping for a while in Piazza della Signoria to admire the Dome and the Giotto Bell Tower is an unforgettable experience. The Florence of today teems with throbbing, fermenting artists whose excellence in the field of fashion is turning the city into a style capital, in Italy second only to Milan. Even more so when Pitti Uomo, which dictates the rules for men’s elega...
