Electronic Materials Science
Description:
A thorough introduction to fundamental principles and applications
From its beginnings in metallurgy and ceramics, materials science now encompasses such high– tech fields
as microelectronics, polymers, biomaterials, and nanotechnology. Electronic Materials Science presents the
fundamentals of the subject in a detailed fashion for a multidisciplinary audience. Offering a higher–level
treatment than an undergraduate textbook provides, this text benefits students and practitioners not only in
electronics and optical materials science, but also in additional cutting–edge fields like polymers and
biomaterials.
Readers with a basic understanding of physical chemistry or physics will appreciate the text's sophisticated
presentation of today's materials science. Instructive derivations of important formulae, usually omitted in
an introductory text, are included here. This feature offers a useful glimpse into the foundations of how the
discipline understands such topics as defects, phase equilibria, and mechanical properties. Additionally,
concepts such as reciprocal space, electron energy band theory, and thermodynamics enter the discussion
earlier and in a more robust fashion than in other texts.
Electronic Materials Science also features:
- An orientation towards industry and academia drawn from the author's experience in both arenas
- Information on applications in semiconductors, optoelectronics, photocells, and nanoelectronics
- Problem sets and important references throughout
- Flexibility for various pedagogical needs
Treating the subject with more depth than any other introductory text, Electronic Materials Science prepares
graduate and upper–level undergraduate students for advanced topics in the discipline and gives scientists
in associated disciplines a clear review of the field and its leading technologies.
