Synopsis

Solid-state electronics are those circuits or devices built entirely from solid materials and in which the electrons, or other charge carriers, are confined entirely within the solid material. Common solid- state devices include transistors, microprocessor chips, and RAM. In a solid-state component, the electric current is confined to solid elements and compounds engineered specifically to switch and amplify it. Current flow can be understood in two forms: as negatively charged electrons, and as positively charged electron deficiencies called holes. This book deals with the physics behind the operation of semiconductor devices and show how these principles are applied in several different types of semiconductor devices.
