When I was contacted by Kluwer Academic Publishers in the Fall of 200 I, inviting me to edit a volume of papers on the issue of electron transport in quantum dots, I was excited by what I saw as an ideal opportunity to provide an overview of a field of research that has made significant contributions in recent years, both to our understanding of fundamental physics, and to the development of novel nanoelectronic technologies. The need for such a volume seemed to be made more pressing by the fact that few comprehensive reviews of this topic have appeared in the literature, in spite of the vast activity in this area over the course of the last decade or so. With this motivation, I set out to t...
"Includes the rediscovered part four"--Cover.
This book provides the knowledge and understanding necessary to comprehend the operation of individual electronic devices that are found in modern micro-electronics. As a textbook, it is aimed at the third-year undergraduate curriculum in electrical engineering, in which the physical electronic properties are used to develop an introductory understanding to the semiconductor devices used in modern micro-electronics. The emphasis of the book is on providing detailed physical insight into the microscopic mechanisms that form the cornerstone for these technologies. Mathematical treatments are therefore kept to the minimum level necessary to achieve suitable rigor. * Covers crystalline structure * Thorough introduction to the key principles of quantum mechanics * Semiconductor statistics, impurities, and controlled doping * Detailed analysis of the operation of semiconductor devices, including p-n junctions, field-effect transistors, metal-semiconductor junctions and bipolar junction transistors * Discussion of optoelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and lasers * Chapters on the device applications of dielectrics, magnetic materials, and superconductors
Describes the physical characteristics, behavior, voices, and habitats of a variety of common birds, arranged by their color. Includes the Peterson System of identifying birds by their unique markings.
Basic Electronics Engineering provides a thorough explanation of the field's basic ideas, methods, and tools. Almost all Indian technical institutes and several international institutions use this book to teach their introductory electronics course. Undergraduates in any branch of engineering will find it extremely useful. The fundamentals of circuit analysis and electrical devices are the exclusive emphasis of this text. The work focuses on fundamental understanding of circuit theory's underlying concepts. It's divided up into seven sections, each of which has its own unique focus while also contributing to a larger technological whole. Digital electronics, digital computers, and digital systems are covered in detail, as are the basics of circuitry, alternating current (AC) circuits, diode applications, semi-conductor diodes and transistors, and operational amplifiers and circuits. It provides sufficiently deep understanding of this subject for students to interact intelligently with other engineers.

“Introduction to Electronics and Communications Engineering” is an enlightening book that takes readers on a journey through the fascinating world of contemporary technology. As our world gets more linked, understanding electronics and communication systems becomes a valuable tool. This book provides a thorough introduction to the fundamental principles, theories, and applications that constitute this dynamic discipline. This book provides a complete trip through the foundations, from the fundamental concepts of electrical circuits to the complexities of communication protocols. It progresses readers from the fundamental components and rules that control electronics, such as resistors, c...
Hawaii’s forest bird community is the most insular and most endangered in the world and serves as a case study for threatened species globally. Ten have disappeared in the past thirty years, nine are critically endangered, and even common species are currently in decline. Thane K. Pratt, his coeditors, and collaborators, all leaders in their field, describe the research and conservation efforts over the past thirty years to save Hawaii’s forest birds. They also offer the most comprehensive look at the reasons for these extinctions and attempts to overcome them in the future. Among the topics covered in this book are trends in bird populations, environmental and genetic factors limiting population size, avian diseases, predators, and competing alien bird species. Color plates by award-winning local photographer Jack Jeffrey illustrate all living species discussed or described.
