Modern Semiconductor Quantum Physics has the following constituents: (1) energy band theory: pseudopotential method (empirical and ab initio); density functional theory; quasiparticles; LCAO method; k.p method; spin-orbit splitting; effective mass and Luttinger parameters; strain effects and deformation potentials; temperature effects. (2) Optical properties; absorption and exciton effect; modulation spectroscopy; photo luminescence and photo luminescence excitation; Raman scattering and polaritons; photoionization. (3) Defects and Impurities: effective mass theory and shallow impurity...
