Essentials of Semiconductor Physics

Informationen zum Autor W. Tom Wenckebach is the author of Essentials of Semiconductor Physics, published by Wiley. Klappentext A concise introduction to the basics of semiconductor physics, Essentials of Semiconductor Physics presents the foundations of the most important and interesting aspects of semiconductors, varying from electronic band structure, via effective mass treatments and quantum devices to transport phenomena and optics, including some of the latest developments in these fields. Based on the author's undergraduate course, the book is oriented towards physicists and to engineers with a scientific background as it approaches the subject from quantum mechanics. Provides an alternative approach to semiconductors from traditional books. Bridges the gap between fundamental subjects such as quantum mechanics and Maxwell's equations and the processes determining the behaviour of semiconductors Includes a description of semiconductor theory from a full quantum mechanical approach Written for undergraduate and graduate students taking a first course on semiconductors, in physics and material science departments. Zusammenfassung Offers a concise! modern introduction to semiconductor physics! presenting all the basic information necessary to understand semiconductors! along with some of the latest theories and developments. Inhaltsverzeichnis Electrons, Nuclei and Hamiltonians. Band Structure. The K ? p-Approximation. Effective Mass Theory. The Crystal Lattice. Electron-Phonon Coupling. Charge Transport. Optical Transitions. Appendices. Exercises. Bibliography. Index.
