This volume is made up of contributions from researchers in 22 countries. It aims to promote exchange of the latest experimental and theoretical results on structural integrity, durability and failure analysis; with the emphasis on fracture and damage mechanics.

Defects and Diffusion in Semiconductors IV

Edited by: Dr. David J. Fisher

Online since: November 2001

Description: This fourth volume in the series covering the latest results in the field includes abstracts of papers which appeared within the approximate period of mid-2000 to mid-2001. The scope of this coverage includes, in addition to traditional semiconductors, the increasingly important carbide, nitride and silicide semiconductors. Semiconducting oxides are not covered, as information on these can be found in the "Defects and Diffusion in Ceramics Retrospective" series. The increasing interest in ceramic-type semiconductors is again reflected by the invited papers, which include an extensive review of the particular problems involved in growing GaN films on sapphire substrates. Nevertheless, established semiconductors continue to spring surprises and to offer new problems and these are also addressed here by a number of further detailed reviews of work on Si, InP and InGaP. Finally, new results are to be found here concerning diffusive processes and defect behaviour in Ge, GeSi, InGaAs, Si and ZnSe. Altogether, these 8 long reviews, 9 research papers and 752 selected abstracts provide an invaluable and up-to-date insight into current and future trends in semiconductor theory, processing and applications.

Ultrafast Phenomena in Semiconductors

Edited by: Steponas Asmontas and Adolfas Dargys

Online since: December 1998

Description: The 77 papers of the Proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Ultrafast Phenomena in Semiconductors cover a broad range of rapid dynamic processes in semiconductors and high-Tc superconductors. The latest achievements in the understanding of low-dimensional structures, quantum transport and tunneling, high-speed electronics and photonics, chaos and noise, microwave and infrared radiation generation, and microdevices are presented.
