Summary

Designing small structures necessitates an understanding of various device behaviors. The way to gain that understanding is to build, analyze, and interpret the proper mathematical models. Through such models, this book illuminates micro- and nanoscale phenomena. It also facilitates the design and optimization of micro- and nanoscale devices.
