Band Tailings and Deep Defects in Semiconductors
The present textbook treats the effects of temperature upon weakly disordered hydrogenated amorphous silicon and hydrogenated amorphous germanium, as well as the effect of weak disorder upon more complex systems such as GaAs and Al2Gal-xAs alloy. The effects of disorder-induced band tailing upon deep levels in compound semiconductor alloys are also studied. -
Shallow Impurities in Semiconductors V
The volume presents the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Shallow Impurities in Semiconductors, held in Kobe, Japan, August 1992. -
DX Centers
During the last 25 years, the behavior of donors in III-V alloys has been the subject of a very extensive research effort. The research emphasis on AlGaAs compounds is motivated by the industrial importance of AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction based devices. As seeing it now, "the DX center problem", the behavior of donors in III-V alloys, has shown to be unexpectedly difficult to understand. To determine the microscopic nature of the DX center is still a challenging problem. -
Gettering and Defect Engineering in Semiconductor Technology XI
This proceedings volume contains 126 contributions from the 11th international meeting on Gettering and Defect Engineering in Semiconductor Technology GADEST 2005 held at “La Badine” at the Giens peninsula south of France. -
Positron Annihilation - ICPA-9
The volumes present over 400 reviewed papers on the present state of the art and future prospects in the wide field of research involving positrons. The foreword by Edward Teller and the summaries by Jean-Charles Abbe (Chemistry) and Alfred Seeger (Physics) demonstrate how the field is seen from "outside" and from "inside". -
Defects in Semiconductors I
This volume focuses on current theoretical and experimental investigations of defects in III-V and II-VI compounds, silicon, germanium, Si-Ge alloys, and amorphous semiconductors. The discussions also address the metastability and superconductivity induced by point defects, dislocations and processing in semiconductors. -
Ultra Clean Processing of Silicon Surfaces VII
This book is sub-divided into 10 different topical sections; each dealing with important issues in surface cleaning and preparation. -
Functional Nanomaterials for Optoelectronics and other Applications
Research and development in the field of nanomaterials - thin films, nanowires, nanocrystals and nanostructured bulk materials - has increased very rapidly during recent years. Especially significant has been research in which the structure is closely controlled at the nanometer level in order to achieve the desired functional properties. -
Polycrystalline Semiconductors VII
This book comprises the over 100 contributions that were presented at the International Conference on Polycrystalline Semiconductors which took place from September 10 to 13, 2002, in Nara, Japan. -
Chaos and Stability in Defect Processes in Semiconductors
The book introduces a new scientific ideology for known phenomena, and the authors show how some results of radiation physics of semiconductors, for example processes of disordering and amorphization, can be considered from a synergetics point of view, and how one can apply these concepts and mathematical tools to derive completely new insights.
