This volume presents a coherent and detailed description of the field, and brings together leaders in theoretical research. The book discusses today's state-of-the-art, as well as tomorrow s tools: the supercell-pseudopotential method, the GW formalism, Quantum Monte Carlo, learn-on-the-fly molecular dynamics, finite-temperature treatments and more. A wealth of applications are included, from point defects to wafer bonding or the propagation of dislocation. "

This textbook originates from a lecture course in laser physics at the Karlsruhe School of Optics and Photonics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). A main goal in the conception of this textbook was to describe the fundamentals of lasers in a uniform and especially lab-oriented notation and formulation as well as many currently well-known laser types, becoming more and more important in the future. It closes a gap between the measureable spectroscopic quantities and the whole theoretical description and modeling. This textbook contains not only the fundamentals and the context...

• This book contains full account of the advances made in the dilute nitrides, providing an excellent starting point for workers entering the field.
• It gives the reader easier access and better evaluation of future trends, Conveying important results and current ideas.
• Includes a generous list of references at the end of each chapter, providing a useful reference to the III-V-N based semiconductors research community.

The high speed lasers operating at wavelength of 1.3 m and 1.55 m are very important light sources in optical communications since the optical...

The exploding number of uses for ultrafast, ultrasmall integrated circuits has increased the importance of hot-carrier effects in manufacturing as well as for other technological applications. They are rapidly movingout of the research lab and into the real world.

This book is derived from Dr. Takedas book in Japanese, Hot-Carrier Effects, (published in 1987 by Nikkei Business Publishers). However, the new book is much more than a translation. Takedas original work was a starting point for developing this much more complete and fundamental text on this increasingly important...

Focus on silicon-based semiconductors--a real-world, market-dominating issue that will appeal to people looking to apply what they are learning. Comprehensive coverage includes treatment of basic semiconductor properties, elements of Quantum Mechanics, energy band theory, equilibrium carrier statistics, recombination-generation processes, and drift/diffusion carrier transport. Practicing engineers and scientists will find this volume helpful, whether it be self-study, reference, or review.
