The result of a joint effort between representatives of private industry and academia, the publication is divided into sections on elements, alloys, insulators and compound semi-conductors. An index and bibliography are lacking. Numerous simple graphs and charts are provided, in fact most of the boo

Considers facts concerning the various aspects of the high-speed IC issue (i.e. is there an optimum IC technology for high-speed digital systems?) and develops key concepts for a multilevel comparison among the competing technologies. Contributors including physicists, process engineers, chip design

A companion to v.1 (which covers reliability, test, and diagnostics), this volume explains the main failure mechanisms which may affect silicon devices and shows their effect on reliability characteristics. Due to the importance of VLSI devices, emphasis is given to metalizations and latch-up. Acidi

This text, the first of its kind, delivers a systematically organized introduction to the theory and practice of yield prediction. The book addresses the economic need for accurate yield prediction, and clarifies the important role it plays in the semiconductor industry.

This volume presents an integrated survey of the most recent research, engineering development and commercial application of amorphous and microcrystalline semiconductor optoelectronic devices. The emphasis throughout the book is on understanding the physical fundamentals with a view towards designing and implementing practical optoelectronic devices.

Describes the basic theory of carrier transport, develops numerical algorithms in FORTRAN used for transport problems or device simulations, and presents real-world examples.

This reference provides detailed information on semiconductor physics and modelling.

This work provides a comprehensive overview of current InP HBT technology and its applications. Each chapter is written by a world-renowned expert on topics including crystal growth, processing, physics, modelling, and digital and analog circuits.

Systematic Analysis of Bipolar and MOS Transistors is a self-contained reference that walks you through the logical processes involved in transistor analysis. Linking device and circuit engineering, it shows you how to use device models intelligently, tailor existing models, and develop new ones.
