Fundamentals of Semiconductor Physics

By Mijoe Joseph

Semiconductors have made an enormous impact on 20 th century science and technology. This is because components made from semiconductors have very favorable properties such as low energy consumption, compactness, and high reliability. and so they now dominate electronics and radio-engineering. Semiconductors are indispensable for space exploration where the requirements of small size, low weight and low energy consumption are especially stringent. This book uses quantum-mechanical concepts and band theory to present the theory of semiconductors in a comprehensible term. It also describes how basic semiconductor devices (eg. diodes. transistors. and losers) operate. The book was written for senior high-school and B.E/B.Tech students interested in semiconductor physics.
