Overview

Quantum Semiconductor Devices and Technologies will be of interest to all working in this important and rapidly developing field. It introduces the fundamentals along with current topics ranging from quantum nanocircuits and the potential applications of self-formed quantum dot structures, through the use of MOVPE to produce quantum structured semiconductors, lithography and patterning and the structural characterization of self-organized Ge-islands.

Booknews

Contributors to this volume provide an overview of the fabrication and operation of nanoscale devices, beginning with a discussion of the relationship between the characteristic separation of energy levels relative to the temperature of operation and the issue of temperature rise due to energy dissipation. A presentation of the device structures that implement memory circuits and lasers with predicable properties is then given before the array of challenges to the current level of fabrication technologies. The remaining three chapters discuss the self-organization techniques that can be used to address these issues. Contributors include physicists from The Netherlands, Japan, the US, Sweden, and Germany. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
