Bücher der Reihe Series on Semiconductor Science and Technology

This work describes the advances in semiconductor science and technology since the late 1970s, with multilayer semiconductor structures as the constant theme running through the book. It also describes new and exciting quantum physics, advances with materials and technology, and the devices themselves, in a unified and coherent overview.

Describes the intrinsic optical processes occurring in semiconductor bulk and engineered semiconductor structures, such as quantum wells and superlattices. This book is intended for use by graduate students in physics and engineering, beginners in the field, and engineers.
