This fourth edition of the well-established Fundamentals of Semiconductors serves to fill the gap between a general solid-state physics textbook and research articles by providing detailed explanations of the electronic, vibrational, transport, and optical properties of semiconductors. The approach is physical and intuitive rather than formal and pedantic. Theories are presented to explain experimental results. This textbook has been written with both students and researchers in mind. Its emphasis is on understanding the physical properties of Si and similar tetrahedrally coordinated semiconductors. The explanations are based on physical insights. Each chapter is enriched by an extensive collection of tables of material parameters, figures, and problems. Many of these problems 쥡d the student by the hand ̕to arrive at the results. Successful and comprehensive textbook on semiconductor physics Covers all major aspects of semiconductor physics Integrates physics and materials science Contains problems to whose solution the student is carefully guided Uses an intuitive physical approach to enhance understanding Includes extensive tables of material properties
