Overview

Semiconductor Physics and Devices provides an introduction to the physics of semiconductor materials and devices. Intended for undergraduate students of engineering, this book will also prove to be a useful reference for engineers and scientists who require an understanding of the phyics of semiconductor devices. Beginning with the basic physics, the book provides a comprehensive coverage of semiconductor fundamentals, the pn junction and devices such as BJT and FET and ends with a discussion on optoelectronic, microwave and power electronic devices. The book also discusses current topics such as bandgap engineering.
