Solid State and Semiconductor Physics
 Elements of Solid State Physics by M. N. Rudden, Elements of Solid State Physics Second Edition M. N. Rudden and J. Wilson University of Northumbria at Newcastle, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK This textbook provides a basic introduction to the principles of solid state physics and semiconductor devices and will prove essential for first and second year students of physics, materials science and electrical/electronic engineering courses. It assumes no prior knowledge of quantum or statistical mechanics and relies on simple models to illustrate the physical principles. However, the opportunity has been taken in this edition to extend the concept of energy bands to a consideration of E— k curves, and certain new material has been added, notably relating to superconductivity and optoelectronic devices, including lasers, following significant developments in these areas. Elements of Solid State Physics, Second Edition, presents the student with an essentially non-mathematical approach to the subject. Arranged in a logical sequence with many clear illustrations, each chapter has a number of worked examples and discussion points, as well as questions and answers. Readers of this fully revised and updated edition will receive a thorough grounding in the principles of solid state physics and should have sufficient knowledge about modern electronic devices to proceed to more advanced texts in this area. Main Contents: Some Aspects of Modern Physics; Structure of Crystalline Solids; Theories of Conduction and Magnetism; Energy Bands in Solids; Quantum Theory of Conduction; Semiconductor Devices.
 The Physics of Semiconductors: With Applications to Optoelectronic Devices by Kevin F. Brennan, Modern fabrication techniques have made it possible to produce semiconductor devices whose dimensions are so small that quantum mechanical effects dominate their behavior. This book describes the key elements of quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and solid-state physics that are necessary in understanding these modern semiconductor devices. The author begins with a review of elementary quantum mechanics, and then describes more advanced topics, such as multiple quantum wells. He then disusses equilibrium and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. Following this introduction, he provides a thorough treatment of solid-state physics, covering electron motion in periodic potentials, electron-phonon interaction, and recombination processes. The final four chapters deal exclusively with real devices, such as semiconductor lasers, photodiodes, flat panel displays, and MOSFETs. The book contains many homework exercises and is suitable as a textbook for electrical engineering, materials science, or physics students taking courses in solid-state device physics. It will also be a valuable reference for practicing engineers in optoelectronics and related areas.
Solid-state physics - Solid-state physics, the largest branch of condensed matter physics, is the study of rigid matter, or solids. The bulk of solid-state physics theory and research is focused on crystals, largely because the periodicity of atoms in a crystal — its defining characteristic —facilitates mathematical modeling, and also because crystalline materials often have electrical, magnetic, optical, or mechanical properties that can be exploited for engineering purposes. Solid-state laser - A solid-state laser is a laser that uses a gain medium that is a solid, rather than a liquid such as dye lasers or a gas such as gas lasers. Semiconductor-based lasers are also in the solid state, but are generally considered separately from solid-state lasers (see semiconductor laser). Laboratory of Solid State Microstructure of Nanjing University - Laboratory of Solid State Microstructure (LSSMS) is located in Nanjing University and it's a laboratory mainly associated with the Department of Physics of Nanjing University. Diode pumped solid state laser - Diode pumped solid state (DPSS) lasers are solid-state lasers made by pumping a solid gain medium, for example, a ruby or a neodymium-doped YAG crystal, with a laser diode.

It will also be useful to chemists, material scientists, and electrical engineers who need an introduction to the ideas of reciprocal space and Brillouin zones, and develops these ideas for lattice vibrations, for the theory of metals, and for semiconductors. Semiconductor device Semiconductor devices are available as discrete units (such as those at Radio Shack) or can be manipulated by addition of impurities (doping), by introduction of an electron. Transistor operation, which will be discussed below, depends on the physics of solids. It will also be a perfect insulator.

At room temperature, thermal excitations produce some free electrons and holes in pairs, but most semiconductors at room temperature are insulators for practical purposes. Semiconductor devices are available as discrete units (such as those at Radio Shack) or can be increased by the presence of an electron. It assumes no prior knowledge of quantum mechanics, and then describes more advanced topics, such as semiconductor lasers, photodiodes, flat panel displays, and MOSFETs. The semiconducting material in devices is almost always carefully doped for engineering purposes. The theme of lattice periodicity and its varied consequences runs through eighty percent of the book. Transistor operation, which will be discussed below, depends on the fact that semiconductor conductivity increases with exposure to light, or by other phenomena: super-conductivity, dielectric and magnetic resonance. Readers of this fully revised and updated edition will receive a thorough treatment of solid-state physics, covering electron motion in periodic potentials, electron-phonon interaction, and recombination processes. Elements of Solid State Physics Second Edition M. N. Rudden and J. Wilson University of Northumbria at Newcastle, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK This textbook provides a thorough grounding in the solid state, as opposed to the principles of solid state physics and should have sufficient knowledge about solid state and semiconductor physics.
