This book will be useful to solid-state scientists, device engineers,
and students involved in semiconductor design and technology. It
provides a lucid account of band structure, density of states, charge
transport, energy transport, and optical processes, along with a
detailed description of many devices. It includes sections on
superlattices and quantum well structures, the effects of deep-level
impurities on transport, and the quantum Hall effect. This 8th edition
has been revised and updated, including several new sections.
