Semiconductor Physics and Applications

Zusatztext "A graduate-level text considering both the basic theorectical physics and practical uses of semiconductors" Materials World Informationen zum Autor M. Balkanski, Professor Emeritus of Physics, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France R.F. Wallis, Professor Emeritus of Physics, University of California at Irvine, USA Klappentext This textbook combines a thorough theoretical treatment of the basic physics of semiconductors with applications to practical devices by putting special emphasis on the physical principles upon which these devices operate. Topics treated are the detailed band structure of semiconductors! theeffect of impurities on electronic states! and semiconductor statistics. Also discussed are lattice dynamical! transport! and surface properties as well as optical! magneto-optical! and electro-optical properties. The applied part of the book treats p-n junctions! bipolar junction transistors! semiconductor lasers and photodevices! after which the subject of heterostructures and superlattices is taken up with coverage of electronic! lattice dynamical! optical! and transport properties. The book concludes with treatments of metal-semiconductor devices such as MOSFETs and devices based onheterostructures. Graduate students and lecturers in semiconductor physics! condensed matter physics! electromagnetic theory! and quantum mechanics will find this a useful textbook and reference work. Zusammenfassung Covers the basic physics of semiconductors and their applications to practical devices, with emphasis on the basic physical principles upon which these devices operate. This title is suitable for graduate students and lecturers in semiconductor physics, condensed matter physics, electromagnetic theory, and quantum mechanics.
