Description: Continued advances in the welfare of the human race depend upon the continual development of, and improvement in, the engineering devices that serve our day-to-day needs. Such development and improvement in engineering devices hinges primarily upon the availability of innovative materials which are capable of withstanding the most stringent service conditions. Materials with nano-level microstructural features make up one such class of material that has recently caught the imagination of researchers worldwide. These materials have demonstrated their potential to exhibit very unusual combinations of properties, and have convincingly confounded conventional beliefs.

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.
Important discoveries have been made, including quantum dots, confinement effects and super-emission, and the prospects for rapid development in these areas are very promising. The results of much of the basic research have been the basis of an astonishing rate of progress in microelectronics. It is therefore expected that the study and development of nanomaterials will provide a firm foundation for a major increase in the number of advanced technologies and for the development of new optoelectronics and photonic devices.

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.

Description: Condensed matter physics is an important field, not only for physicists, but also for other scientists and engineers. It encompasses all types of solid and liquid materials. Solid-state phenomena in metals, semiconductors, dielectrics, magnetic and optical materials in all their forms (crystalline, amorphous, nanocrystalline, polymer, liquid) are being intensely investigated. This is being done both for fundamental reasons, and because of the numerous actual and possible practical applications. Therefore, condensed matter physics is also the keystone of electrical, electronic and mechanical engineering, technology, and the development of its methods thus has a direct influence upon applied sciences.
