Understanding Modern Transistors and Diodes (repost)

Close

Written in a concise, easy-to-read style, this text for senior undergraduate and graduate courses covers all key topics thoroughly. It is also a useful self-study guide for practising engineers who need a complete, up-to-date review of the subject. Key features:
• Rigorous theoretical treatment combined with practical detail
• A theoretical framework built up systematically from the Schrödinger Wave Equation and the Boltzmann Transport Equation
• Covers MOSFETS, HBTs and HJFETS
• Uses the PSP model for MOSFETS
• Rigorous treatment of device capacitance
• Describes the operation of modern, high-performance transistors and diodes
• Evaluates the suitability of various transistor types and diodes for specific modern applications
• Covers solar cells and LEDs and their potential impact on energy generation and reduction
• Includes a chapter on nanotransistors to prepare students and professionals for the future
• Provides results of detailed numerical simulations to compare with analytical solutions
• End-of-chapter exercises
• Online lecture slides for undergraduate and graduate courses
