Apatites are currently of major interest in a number of fields: biomaterials, solid oxide fuel cells, catalysis, environmental remediation to name a few. Hydroxyapatite -...

Materials adopting the apatite structure are gaining an increasing importance as potential solid-oxide fuel cell electrolytes and for the chemical stabilisation of high level...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a natural compound (Ca10 (PO4)6(OH) 2) found in human bone and clinical research has shown that HA coated orthopaedic implants improve the ingrowth and...

Apatite-type lanthanide silicates/germanates have been attracting considerable interest as a new class of oxide ion conductors. The presence of interstitial oxide ions is...
