Ideal for undergraduate and beginning graduate students in electrical engineering, Understanding Semiconductor Devices provides a solid grounding in both fundamental principles and practical skills. The text features intuitive explanations and a motivating "electronics-to-physics" approach that progresses from basic to more abstract concepts. It includes intriguing and diverse problems, review questions, and worked out examples. DT Part I: The Fundamentals introduces students to essential material (semiconductor theory, diodes, MOSFETs, and BJTs) without assuming extensive prerequisite knowledge. DT Part II: Advanced Topics covers the specifics of deep submicron MOSFET, photonic,…
