The fourth edition of this class-tested, multi-disciplinary
introduction to solid state engineering adds dozens of revised and
updated sections and problems, as well as three new chapters on solar
energy harvesting, thermal and photothermal energy harvesting, and
photo-thermovoltaics. Combining concepts from physics, chemistry,
electrical engineering, materials science, and mechanical engineering,
Professor Razeghi describes electron-electron and electron-phonon
interactions, the Kane effective mass method, the carbon atom, thermal
properties of crystals, the harmonic oscillator, the hydrogen atom,
the quantum mechanical description of angular momentum, and the origin
of spin in a chapter devoted to quantum mechanics. This textbook
features an improved transport theory description that goes beyond
Drude theory, discussing the Boltzmann approach. Introducing students
to the rigorous quantum mechanical way of thinking about and
formulating transport processes, this fourth edition presents the
basic physics concepts and thorough treatment of semiconductor
characterization technology, designed for solid state engineers.
