Online since: November 2007

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
This book consists of a collection of 74 original peer-reviewed papers. They cover a wide range of topics in the interesting field of nano-structure related semiconductor photonics; a field which encompasses quantum dots, quantum wire, nano-wire, nano-rods, nano-crystals, photonic crystals, ZnO-based materials, III-V compound semiconductors, Si photonics and organic optoelectronic devices.

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.
