Light-Emitting Diodes, 2/e (Hardcover)
暫譯: 發光二極體，第二版（精裝本）

Description  

physics of LEDs such as infrared, visible-spectrum, ultraviolet, and white LEDs made from III-V semiconductors. Elementary properties such as electrical and optical characteristics are reviewed, followed by the analysis of advanced device structures. With nine additional chapters, the treatment of LEDs has been vastly expanded, including new material on device packaging, reflectors, UV LEDs, III-V nitride materials, solid-state sources for illumination applications, and junction temperature. Radiative and non-radiative recombination dynamics, methods for improving light extraction, high-efficiency and high-power device designs, white-light emitters with wavelength-converting phosphor materials, optical reflectors, and spontaneous recombination in resonant-cavity structures are discussed in detail. With exercises, solutions, and illustrative examples, this textbook will be of interest to scientists and engineers working on LEDs and graduate students in electrical engineering, applied physics, and materials science.

Contains 30 exercises, over 20 of which have solutions provided in the book ¿ Many illustrative examples ¿ Contains the same broad perspective as the first edition but is significantly expanded with new material on device packaging, reflectors, UV LEDs, solid-state sources for illumination applications, junction temperature, and III-V nitride materials
