Streetman B.G. Solid State Electronic Devices

Oxford Book Company, 2009, ISBN: 9380179073, 286 pages Solid-state physics, the largest branch of condensed matter physics, is the study of rigid matter, or solids, through methods such as quantum mechanics, crystallography, electromagnetism and metallurgy. Solid-state physics considers how the large-scale properties of solid materials result from their atomic-scale properties. Solid-state physics thus forms the theoretical basis of materials...

Academic Press; 2001, 334 pages The present volume deals with four diverse areas of considerable interest and importance: organic electronic device physics, charge density waves in nanocrystals, shape memory alloys, and grain growth of cellular structures. First part presents a comprehensive survey of the basic physics underlying organic electronic devices, in particular, the most studied examples of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and field-effec...

Wiley, 1998,770 pages Taking an original, imaginative approach to the subject, Stephen Elliott's book is one of the first to bridge the gap between solid state physics and chemistry. Considerable thought has gone into the structure and content of this book, with the first four chapters covering the properties of atoms in solids and the remaining four concentrating on the behaviour of electrons in materials. Fundamental principles are covered to...

2004. - 453 p. The electronic properties of semiconductors form the basis of the latest and current technological revolution, the development of ever smaller and more powerful computing devices, which affect not only the potential of modern science but practically all aspects of our daily life. This dramatic development is based on the ability to engineer the electronic properties of semiconductors and to miniaturize devices down to the limits se...

Springer, Berlin, 2009, 536 pages Uncorrected Proof Intended for a two semester advanced undergraduate or graduate course in Solid State Physics, this treatment offers modern coverage of the theory and related experiments, including the group theoretical approach to band structures, Moessbauer recoil free fraction, semi-classical electron theory, magnetoconductivity, electron self-energy and Landau theory of Fermi liquid, and both quantum and fra...

Springer, New York, 2008, 622 pages This book describes semiconductors from a materials science perspective rather than from condensed matter physics or electrical engineering viewpoints. It includes discussion of current approaches to organic materials for electronic devices. It further describes the fundamental aspects of thin film nucleation and growth, and the most common physical and chemical vapor deposition techniques. Examples of the app...

2nd Ed. Elsevier, 2004. - 711 p. (Studies in Inorganic Chemistry 21) This book was written to introduce the reader to the science and art of preparing inorganic luminescent materials, namely "phosphors". In order to understand how and why luminescent materials exhibit such specific intrinsic properties, one needs to be thoroughly versed in the science of the solid state. Contents: Introduction to the Solid State 1 The Point Defect Mechanisms of...

Springer-Verlag, 1985, 233 p. This book is concerned with the electronic structure and excited-state nonradiative relaxation phenomena in pure rare-gas solids (RGS), alloys of rare gases, solid two-component mixtures, metals in rare-gas solids, pure rare-gas liquids and liquid mixtures. Starting from the experimental point of view the techniques utilized to probe the optical constants, transient absorption, energy- and time-resolved luminescence...

WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim, 2009. 415 pp. Phase transitions of first-order are phenomena, widely occurring in nature. Among them are: evaporation and condensation, melting and solidification, sublimation and condensation into a solid phase, some structural transitions in the solid state, transitions connected with the decomposition into different phases in multicomponent liquid and solid systems, etc. First-order phase transf...

Cambridge University Press, 2006, Pages: 315 The perovskite family of oxides includes a vast array of insulators, metals, and semiconductors. Current intense scientific interest stems from the large number of diverse phenomena exhibited by these materials including pseudo two-dimensional electronic energy bands, high temperature superconductivity, metal-insulator transitions, piezoelectricity, magnetism, photochromic, and catalytic activity. Th...
