* Covers all key semiconductor devices with up-to-date information and easy-to-understand descriptions. Each chapter is presented in a logical manner enabling students to learn all important devices from a single source. * Covers historical developments of devices and technology in the last 100 years.
The awaited revision of Semiconductor Devices: Physics and Technology offers more than 50% new or revised material that reflects a multitude of important discoveries and advances in device physics and integrated circuit processing. Offering a basic introduction to physical principles of modern semiconductor devices and their advanced fabrication technology, the third edition presents students with theoretical and practical aspects of every step in device characterizations and fabrication, with an emphasis on integrated circuits.

Divided into three parts, this text covers the basic properties of semiconductor materials, emphasizing silicon and gallium arsenide; the physics and characteristics of semiconductor devices bipolar, unipolar special microwave and photonic devices; and the latest processing technologies, from crystal growth to lithographic pattern transfer.

S. M. Sze, PhD, is UMC Chair Professor in the Electronics Engineering Department at the National Chiao Tung University. His previous books include Semiconductor Devices; Physics of Semiconductor Devices, Second Edition; High-Speed Semiconductor Devices; and Semiconductor Sensors, all available from Wiley. Ming-Kwei Lee is the author of Semiconductor Devices: Physics and Technology, 3rd Edition, published by Wiley.
