Zusatztext The book is very well produced, and is particularlynotable for its excellent diagrams. A good collection of problems is provided at the end of each chapter, together with abundant references to the research literature for those who wish to follow-up specific topics in more detail. Overall, I find this to be a very welcome addition to my bookshelf, and expect that it will have a wide readership among graduate students and researchers in semiconductor physics. Informationen zum Autor Ivan Pelant was Head of the Department of Chemical Physics at Charles University in Prague from 1990-1993.He has been Researcher at the Institute of Physics at the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, v.v.i., Prague from 1994 until present and was appointed as Professor of Quantum Optics and Optoelectronics, Charles University in Prague in 2002.Jan Valenta has been Associate Professor at the Department of Chemical Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague since 2004. Klappentext Semiconductor luminescence has been a rapidly expanding field over the last fifty years. Work on various types of luminescence radiation has been taking place but this is the first book that reviews the whole subject of semiconductor luminescence in one coherent volume.
