Basic Properties of Semiconductors
Since Volume 1 was published in 1982, the centres of interest in the basic physics of semiconductors have shifted. Volume 1 was called Band Theory and Transport Properties in the first edition, but the subject has broadened to such an extent that Basic Properties is now a more suitable title. Seven chapters have been rewritten by the original authors. However, twelve chapters are essentially new, with the bulk of this work being devoted to important current topics which give this volume an almost encyclopaedic form. The first three chapters discuss various aspects of modern band theory and the next two analyze impurities in semiconductors. Then follow chapters on semiconductor statistics and...

He possessed a breadth of vision that led him into many fields of scientific work.The main feature of Mendeleyev's work was the importance he attached to linking theoretical work with practice, with life. As an epigraph to his Foundation of Chemistry he chose the prophetic words: "What science sows the people will reap." On whatever problem he was working, all his deeds were inspired by the wish to help the development of the productiv...
