Ceramics have been playing important roles in our modern society and will continue to propel the advancement of science and technology. Historically, ceramics research has led to the creation of many new theories, materials, innovative processes, functionalities, and properties of advanced ceramics. In the past years, innovations in ceramic materials have been observed by many and have inspired a large number of research efforts to pursue new knowledge, including high-entropy ceramics, novel sintering technology, laser ceramics, lead-free piezoelectric ceramics, interface and grain boundary engineering, atomic-level materials design, characterization, etc. This symposium aims to provide a forum to discuss the fundamental and frontier science of advanced ceramics and emerging applications of new processing technologies and ceramic materials. The topics include all aspects of the basic ceramic sciences and the utilization of new technology, processing, and materials for applications in the fields of sustainable environment, healthcare, energy, etc.
