Synopsis :

This handbook gives a complete and detailed survey of the field of semiconductor physics. It addresses every fundamental principle, the most important research topics and results, as well as conventional and emerging new areas of application. Additionally it provides all essential reference material on crystalline bulk, low-dimensional, and amorphous semiconductors, including valuable data on their optical, transport, and dynamic properties.

This updated and extended second edition includes essential coverage of rapidly advancing areas in semiconductor physics, such as topological insulators, quantum optics, magnetic nanostructures and spintronic systems. Richly illustrated and authored by a duo of internationally acclaimed experts in solar energy and semiconductor physics, this handbook delivers in-depth treatment of the field, reflecting a combined experience spanning several decades as both researchers and educators. Offering a unique perspective on many issues, Semiconductor Physics is an invaluable reference for physicists, materials scientists and engineers throughout academia and industry.

À propos de l?auteur: Dr. mult. Karl Wolfgang Böer was Distinguished Professor of physics and solar energy, and fellow of AAAS, APS, ASES and IEEE. For over five decades he taught classes in solid-state and semiconductor physics at the University of Delaware and the Humboldt University in Berlin, Germany, and has given keynote addresses at numerous international conferences. He was the first to measure the Franz-Keldysh effect, discovered high-field domains in semiconductors, the condensation of excitons, as well as numerous properties of cadmium sulfide. He has published 380 papers, 14 monographs, was editor of 23 international conference proceedings and has obtained 18 patents. He founded the journal Physica Status Solidi in 1960 and the Springer book series Advances in Solar Energy in 1978. He has been highly decorated from the American Solar Energy Society, the International Solar Energy Society, and the University of Delaware, where the prestigious Solar Energy Medal of Merit in his name is awarded biannually to one of the world leaders in solar energy research and industry. Karl Wolfgang Böer passed away aged 92 on the 18th of April, 2018, shortly after the publication of first edition of Semiconductor Physics.

Dr. rer. nat. Udo W. Pohl, professor of experimental physics, studied physics in Aachen and Berlin, Germany, and received his Ph.D. degree in 1988 from the Technical University of Berlin, where he is currently principal investigator in the Institute of Solid State Physics. He is a member of the German Physical Society, has served on numerous international conference committees, and has given keynote addresses at international conferences. He has been giving lectures on semiconductor physics and epitaxy since the early 1990s. In 2009 he was appointed adjunct professor of physics at the Technical University of Berlin. He is series editor of book series Springer Series in Materials Science, has authored over 200 journal articles and conference papers, the monograph Epitaxy of Semiconductors, 13 book contributions, and is holder of several patents. His current research interests include physics and epitaxy of semiconductor nanostructures and devices.
