Physics of Nanostructured Solid State Devices introduces readers to theories and concepts such as semi-classical and quantum mechanical descriptions of electron transport, methods for calculations of band structures in solids with applications in calculation of optical constants, and other advanced concepts. The information presented here will equip readers with the necessary tools to carry out cutting edge research in modern solid state nanodevices.
Physics of Nanostructured Solid State Devices

This book is intended to introduce a first year graduate student of electrical engineering and/or applied physics to concepts that are critical to understanding the behavior of charge carriers (electrons and holes) in modern nanostructured solid state devices. The student is assumed to have undergraduate background in solid state physics, solid state devices, and quantum mechanics. Many of the topics discussed here are specific to ultrasmall (nanostructured) devices, but some are more general and apply to any solid. This material is the result of the author's teaching a graduate level introductory course on electron theory of solids in three US universities over a period spanning nearly 25 years. It has been his experience that once students are able to grasp the concepts presented here and become comfortable with them, they are able to handle more difficult and specialized topics quite easily. Physics of Nanostructured Solid State Devices introduces readers to theories and concepts such as semi-classical and quantum mechanical descriptions of electron transport, methods for calculations of band structures in solids with applications in calculation of optical constants, and other advanced concepts.

Solid State Physics provides a broad introduction to some of the principal areas of the physical phenomena in solid materials and is aimed broadly at undergraduate students of physics and engineering related subjects. The physical properties of materials are intimately related to the crystalline symmetry of atoms as well as the atomic species present. This includes the electronic, mechanical, magnetic and optical properties of all materials. These subjects are treated in depth and provide the reader with the tools necessary for an understanding of the varied phenomena of materials. Particular emphasis is given to the reaction of materials to specific stimuli, such as the application of electric and magnetic fields. Nanotechnologies are based on the formation of nano-sized elements and structures. The final chapter of the book provides a broad introduction to the topic and uses some of the main tools of solid state physics to explain the behavior of nanomaterials and why they are of importance for future technologies. FEATURES: • Provides a broad introduction to the principal areas of the physical phenomena in solid materials • Includes the electronic, mechanical, magnetic and optical properties of all materials • Explains the behavior of nanomaterials and why they are of importance for future technologies
