Semiconductor Nanodevices
Author: David Ritchie
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128220848
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
Semiconductor Nanodevices: Physics, Technology and Applications explores recent advances in the field. The behaviour of these devices is controlled by regions of nanoscale dimensions which typically determine the local density of electronic states and lead to the observation of a range of quantum effects with significant potential for exploitation. The book opens with an introduction describing the development of this research field over the past few decades which contrasts quantum-controlled devices to conventional nanoscale electronic devices where an emphasis has often been placed on minimising quantum effects. This introduction is followed by seven chapters describing electrical nanodevices and five chapters describing opto-electronic nanodevices; individual chapters review important recent advances. These chapters include specific fabrication details for the structures and devices described as well as a discussion of the physics made accessible. It is an important reference source for physicists, materials scientists and engineers who want to learn more about how semiconductor-based nanodevices are being developed for both science and potential industrial applications. The section on electrical devices includes chapters describing the study of electron correlation effects using transport in quantum point contacts and tunnelling between one-dimensional wires; the high-frequency pumping of single electrons; thermal effects in quantum dots; the use of silicon quantum dot devices for qubits and quantum computing; transport in topological insulator nanoribbons and a comprehensive discussion of noise in electrical nanodevices. The optical device section describes the use of self-assembled III-V semiconductor nanostructures embedded in devices for a range of applications, including quantum dots for single and entangled photon sources, quantum dots and nanowires in lasers and quantum dots in solar cells. - Explores the major industrial applications of semiconductor nanodevices - Explains fabrication techniques for the production of semiconductor nanodevices - Assesses the challenges for the mass production of semiconductor nanodevices

Guide To Semiconductor Engineering
Author: Jerzy Ruzyllo
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9811216010
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
The Guide to Semiconductor Engineering is concerned with semiconductor materials, devices and process technologies which in combination constitute an enabling force behind the growth of our technical civilization. This book was conceived and written keeping in mind those who need to learn about semiconductors, who are professionally associated with select aspects of this technical domain and want to see it in a broader context, or for those who are simply interested in state-of-the-art semiconductor engineering. In its coverage of semiconductor properties, materials, devices, manufacturing technology, and characterization methods, this Guide departs from textbook-style, monothematic in-depth discussions of each topic. Instead, it considers the entire broad field of semiconductor technology and identifies synergistic interactions within various areas in one concise volume. It is a holistic approach to the coverage of semiconductor engineering which distinguishes this Guide among other books concerned with semiconductors related issues.

Book Description
"Semiconductors and Superconductors: From Invention to Innovation" is a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental technologies that power modern electronics, energy systems, and computing. Written by Ron Legarski, a leading expert in telecommunications and technology solutions, this book delves into the discovery, evolution, and future applications of semiconductors and superconductors—two cornerstones of modern science and engineering. The book is designed for a wide audience, from professionals in the tech industry and academic researchers to students and general readers interested in understanding the science and technology that drive today’s digital world. Semiconductors are the building blocks of every microchip, transistor, and integrated circuit—essential components in everything from smartphones to solar cells. Superconductors, on the other hand, have the potential to revolutionize fields like energy transmission, quantum computing, and medical imaging by enabling technologies that operate with zero electrical resistance. This book covers the key milestones in the development of semiconductors and superconductors, starting with the invention of the transistor and the discovery of superconductivity. It also dives into the applications of these technologies in industries such as telecommunications, computing, energy systems, and medical technology, demonstrating their far-reaching impact on society. Key topics include: The physics of semiconductors and superconductors, explained in accessible language. The history and evolution of transistors, integrated circuits, and quantum devices. How superconducting materials are used in applications ranging from MRI machines to high-speed trains. The role of semiconductors in smartphones, AI systems, and energy-efficient power grids. Future research directions, including the pursuit of room-temperature superconductors and wide-bandgap semiconductors like SiC and GaN. The convergence of AI, machine learning, and nanotechnology in designing next-generation semiconductor and superconductor devices. The book also provides a forward-looking perspective on how these technologies will shape the future, particularly in fields like quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and renewable energy systems.
