Beschreibung
This revised edition of a well-received text provides a multidisciplinary introduction to quantum mechanics, solid state physics, advanced devices, and fabrication that draws on concepts from physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, materials science and mechanical engineering. Mathematical derivations are carried through in detail with emphasis on clarity, followed by a thorough treatment of the technology for solid state engineering. Topics include compound semiconductor bulk and epitaxial thin films growth techniques, current semiconductor device processing and nano-fabrication technologies. The authors provide study problems, and examples of semiconductor devices with descriptions of their theory of operation, including transistors, semiconductor lasers and photodetectors.
