The discussion of time-dependent and coherent phenomena in semiconductors has been considerably extended by including a section dealing with the theoretical description of photon echoes in semiconductors. After the discussion of semiconductor laser physics, optical bistability, and electroabsorption in semiconductors, a new chapter on magneto-absorption has been added, in which magneto-excitons and magneto-plasmas in two-dimensional systems are discussed. The chapter on electron kinetics due to the interaction with longitudinal-optical phonons has been extended and a discussion on carrier-carrier collisions has been added to the chapter dealing with the semiconductor bloch equations. The material is presented in sufficient detail for graduate students and researchers who have a general background in quantum mechanics.

"... I consider this book a useful and opportune monograph. Several problems are given at the end of each chapter, making this monograph a really effective textbook. I would like to recommend it as required reading for graduate students and researchers who intend to enter semiconductor physics and technology." -- Leonid V Keldysh, Physics Today, 1994
