Book Description
CD-ROM version. Microelectronic devices are now mass-produced, can be found everywhere and are bringing about an unprecedented social change by providing the main stimulus to computer technology, robotics and information technology.This dictionary covers the technical terms considered most important, ranging from the theoretical principles underlying microelectronics to the state-of-the-art in device fabrication and application.The main subject areas covered are: Semiconductor physics: crystals - energy bands - charge-carrier conduction - pn junctions - semiconductor surfaces.Microelectronic technology: crystal growth - oxidation - doping - diffusion - ion implantation - etching - epitaxy - masking, photolithography - deposition - metallization - bonding techniques, packaging - chip, wafer.Integrated circuits: integrated elements - bipolar and field-effect transistors - design, technology, fabrication, testing - digital and
