Textbook introducing engineers to quantum mechanics and nanostructures, covering the fundamentals and applications to nanoscale materials and nanodevices.
Modern technology is rapidly developing and for this reason future engineers need to acquire advanced knowledge in science and technology, including electromagnetic phenomena. This book is a contemporary text of a one-semester course for junior electrical engineering students. It covers a broad spectrum of electromagnetic phenomena such as, surface waves, plasmas, photonic crystals, negative refraction as well as related materials including superconductors. In addition, the text brings together electromagnetism and optics as the majority of texts discuss electromagnetism disconnected from optics. In contrast, in this book both are discussed. Seven labs have been developed to accompany the material of the book.
A rigorous guide providing a unified, multidisciplinary treatment of the fundamentals of optical and optoelectronic nanostructures.
Quantum Heterostructures provides a detailed description of the key physical and engineering principles of quantum semiconductor heterostructures. Blending important concepts from physics, materials science, and electrical engineering, it also explains clearly the behavior and operating features of modern microelectronic and optoelectronic devices. The authors begin by outlining the trends that have driven development in this field, most importantly the need for high-performance devices in computer, information, and communications technologies. They then describe the basics of quantum nanoelectronics, including various transport mechanisms. In the latter part of the book, they cover novel microelectronic devices, and optical devices based on quantum heterostructures. The book contains many homework problems and is suitable as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses in electrical engineering, physics, or materials science. It will also be of great interest to those involved in research or development in microelectronic or optoelectronic devices.
A comprehensive textbook on nanoelectronics covering the underlying physics, nanostructures, nanomaterials and nanodevices.

Introduction to Solid-State Electronics combines a modern presentation of semiconductor physics with a description of the principles of semiconductor devices. It unites the authors’ extensive teaching and research experience with the requirements of an introductory graduate course in Solid-State Electronics for engineering students. Since a crystal is an object of high symmetry, some simple techniques—which do not require knowledge of the mathematical groups at the professional level—are used for the application of symmetry to the analysis of band structures. The textbook outlines the properties of low-dimensional structures in parallel with those of bulk materials. The authors have made the mathematical derivations both as self-contained and as simple as possible without using arguments of the type “it can be easily shown that.…” This technique is just one of many that enables the book to provide a clear, comprehensive understanding of the main properties of semiconductors and their relations to device structures.
