Short Description
Several advanced semiconductor materials are now in the forefront of semiconductor research. These materials include different polytypes of SiC, SiGe alloys, and nitrides, such as GaN, InN, AIN, and BN. Each of these materials has many applications in the power industry, microwave industry, consumer products, medicine, and defense.
Containing the most reliable parameter values for each of these semiconductor materials, along with applicable references, these data are organized in a structured, logical way for each semiconductor material.
* Reviews traditional semiconductor materials as well as new, advanced semiconductors.
* Essential authoritative handbook on the properties of semiconductor materials.
