Ultrafast Phenomena in Semiconductors 2001

Edited by: S. Asmontas, A. Dargys and H.G. Roskos

Online since: January 2002

Description: This book on ultrafast phenomena in semiconductors covers the electrical, magnetic and optical properties of charge carriers in solids and the interaction of solids and low-dimensional structures with electromagnetic fields and radiation. The book gives particular attention to: (a) Spectroscopic, transport, noise and localization properties of electrons and holes confined in quantum wells and quantum dots, including microdevices, (b) Physical principles of generation and detection of Teraherz electromagnetic radiation, and (c) high-speed electronics and materials.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).

Polycrystalline Semiconductors V

Edited by: J.H. Werner, H.P. Strunk, H.W. Schock

Online since: April 1999

Description: Like the previous conferences in this series, POLYSE '98 covered many aspects of polycrystalline semiconductors. Whereas earlier proceedings had included many contributions on basic research, for example on the structural properties of single grain boundaries, later proceedings had included more articles on solar cells and thin-film transistors, seemingly marking a transition to a more technology-oriented conference. However, the contributions to POLYSE '98 show that the POLYSE-series is again bringing together researchers from basic research as well as engineers working on devices.

The 84 papers cover topics such as: beam-induced currents, thin-film silicon, silicon crystallization, oxide semiconductor films, chalcogenide and spinel films, chalcopyrite films, thin-film junctions and devices; thus providing an extensive survey of the most recent results in polycrystalline semiconductor research.

Disordered Materials

Edited by: D.K. Chaturvedi and G.E. Murch

Online since: July 1996

Description: The physics of ordered materials is much better understood than that of disordered materials. The lack of a long-range periodic structure makes it difficult to develop the theory of disordered phases. It is not surprising that it is often found difficult to interpret experimental data on these systems.

Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon

Edited by: Hans Neber-Aeschbacher

Online since: July 1995

Description: Ever since the work of W.E. Spear and P.G. LeComber had proved that an amorphous semiconductor could indeed also be substitutionally doped, research in the respective field has seen an nearly unprecedented development. The role of hydrogen in atomic and electronic structure as well as in the doping mechanism remains an outstanding problem addressed both to theoreticians and experimentalists, and a highly interesting challenge both to the scientist as well as the engineer.
