Book Description

Physics of Semiconductor Devices covers both basic classic topics such as energy band theory and the gradual-channel model of the MOSFET as well as advanced concepts and devices such as MOSFET short-channel effects, low-dimensional devices and single-electron transistors. Concepts are introduced to the reader in a simple way, often using comparisons to everyday-life experiences such as simple fluid mechanics. They are then explained in depth and mathematical developments are fully described.

Physics of Semiconductor Devices contains a list of problems that can be used as homework assignments or can be solved in class to exemplify the theory. Many of these problems make use of Matlab and are aimed at illustrating theoretical concepts in a graphical manner.

Customer Reviews

This book is very good! Both for beginners readers as for readers who are seeking more knowledge in physics of semiconductors. I particularly like much of the didactic Colinge. Recommended!

If your aim is to review the main concepts and refresh your memory of semiconductor devices this book is excellent. Not a book for beginners in the area as it is heavy on equations but the main concepts are dealt with clearly and the many illustrations are quite helpful.
