It says: "It's a little known fact that Ms Spears is an expert in
semiconductor physics.
The establishment of this interface between the world of
semiconductor physics and the world of digital circuit design is one of the striking achievements of the last 15 years.
The data suggest there's new
semiconductor physics here that people may have missed," Awschalom says.
The text begins by reviewing basic principles of transmission lines, circuits and
semiconductor physics.
The book is designed as a guide and reference for analogue circuit designers and graduate students in electrical engineering who have a rudimentary understanding of
semiconductor physics, electronics, and signal processing.
His topics include matter and heat, electricity and magnetism, digital electronics and computer logic, the quantum physics of atoms and materials,
semiconductor physics, light detectors and light-emitting diodes, fiber-optics communications, and communication networks and the Internet.
The authors excel in explaining the physical properties of semiconductor materials and
semiconductor physics, including doping concentrations and their effect on electron mobility.
In the language of
semiconductor physics, these high temperatures excite most of the bound electrons in the silicon's "valence band' to jump up across silicon's "energy band gap' into the "conduction band.
As well as the polariton area, the project will impact on several broader fields:
semiconductor physics in revealing new interaction phenomena on the nanoscale, quantum optics and information science in the realisation of very fast single photon sources and quantum circuit functions, and new high density collective phase physics towards exploitation as opto-electronic logic gates and circuits.
He expects readers to have working knowledge in basic mathematics such as complex variables and partial differential equations; some skill in computer programming; and intermediate to advance courses in electromagnetics, quantum mechanics, and solid-state and
semiconductor physics.
