商品描述

Understanding semiconductor devices, as the building blocks of electronic circuits, is clearly of fundamental importance. In response to this challenge, this text, suitable for an advanced undergraduate or early graduate level course, is written to achieve the following goals:

1.)To meet the students' need to understand with: a)intuitive explanations of the underlying scientific concepts, b)explained fundamental equations, as opposed to using mathematics to explain physical phenomena, c)explained energy-band diagrams to provide rigorous and powerful presentations, which are easy to understand through an analogy with balls on a solid surface and bubbles in water, d)intriguing review questions, and a comprehensive set of worked out examples and problems.

2.)To provide a vertical (electronics-to-physics) hierarchy and a lateral (in terms of contents) flexibility. The electronics-to-physics approach motivates the students to learn the underlying scientific concepts and mathematical models by providing appropriate context and a continuous progression from the common-sense towards more abstract concepts.

3.)To provide CAD "nuts and bolts" with a small SPICE simulator widely used for computer-aided design of electronic circuits. The SPICE contents of this book provide a unique reference and pedagogical tools including: a)tabular presentations of the equations used as device models, b)hierarchically classified and explained SPICE parameters, c)case by case description of parameter measurement techniques, d)computer-based exercises that illustrate the effects of individual SPICE parameters on device and circuits characteristics.

4.)To provide links between the theoretical principles and real-life issues. The following points illustrate the level of integration achieved in this book: a)The device descriptions develop from application concepts (basic circuits). The underlying scientific concepts are "discovered" as needed. The introductions of particular device effects are explained by directly linked descriptions of what is happening on an atomic scale, b)Direct links are established between the fundamental equations and pragmatic SPICE models, c)Practically important issues such as reliability, device parameter measurements, etc., are presented such that they are directly related to the descriptions of fundamental device electronics and technology

  • Student-friendly features: intuitive explanations of underlying scientific concepts; explained fundamental equations (as opposed to mathematical explanations of physical phenomena); explained energy-band diagrams that provide rigorous, powerful, and easy-to-understand presentations; intriguing and diverse problems, review questions, and worked out examples
  • Vertical (electronics-to-physics) hierarchy and lateral flexibility. Electronics-to-physics approach motivates students to learn underlying scientific concepts and mathematical models by providing appropriate context and continuous progress from common sense to more abstract concepts. The Fundamentals (Part I) can easily be covered within a one-semester course and supplemented with selected material from Advanced Topics (Part II).
  • "Nuts and bolts" of SPICE circuit simulator: tabular presentations of SPICE equations (device models); hierarchically classified and explained SPICE parameters; case-by-case description of parameter measurement techniques.
  • Integration of theoretical principles and real-life issues. Device descriptions develop from application concepts (basic circuits) -- underlying scientific concepts are "discovered" as needed, not just introduced as inventory knowledge. Direct links are established between the fundamental equations and pragmatic SPICE models. Presentations of important practical issues, such as reliability and device parameter measurement, are directly linked to the descriptions of fundamental device electronics and technology.
  • CD SUPPLEMENTS Interactive MATLAB Animations enables a quicker and deeper introduction to and comprehension of underlying theoretical concepts. Directly supports many explanations and graphs from the text. There is no need to know or learn MATLAB -- click to make a selection, and start exploring device characteristics and/or underlying physical phenomena.
  • Computer Exercises Manual: Device Parameters in SPICE illustrates the effects and meaning of the individual device parameters described in the text. Includes 90 pages of exercises, complete solutions, and PSPICE instructions
