Selected Topics in Electronics and Systems - Vol. 22
TOPICS IN HIGH FIELD TRANSPORT IN SEMICONDUCTORS
edited by Kevin F Brennan (Georgia Institute of Technology, USA) & P Paul Ruden (University of Minnesota, USA)
This book examines some of the charge carrier transport issues encountered in the field of modern semiconductor devices and novel materials. Theoretical approaches to the understanding and modeling of the relevant physical phenomena, seen in devices that have very small spatial dimensions and that operate under high electric field strength, are described in papers written by leading experts and pioneers in this field. In addition, the book examines the transport physics encountered in novel materials such as wide band gap semiconductors (GaN, SiC, etc.) as well as organic semiconductors. Topics in High Field Transport in Semiconductors provides a comprehensive overview that will be beneficial to newcomers as well as engineers and researchers engaged in this exciting field.
