A thorough introduction to fundamental principles and
applications
From its beginnings in metallurgy and ceramics, materials science
now encompasses such high- tech fields as microelectronics,
polymers, biomaterials, and nanotechnology. Electronic Materials
Science presents the fundamentals of the subject in a detailed
fashion for a multidisciplinary audience. Offering a higher-level
treatment than an undergraduate textbook provides, this text
benefits students and practitioners not only in electronics and
optical materials science, but also in additional cutting-edge
fields like polymers and biomaterials.
Readers with a basic understanding of physical chemistry or physics
will appreciate the text's sophisticated presentation of today's
materials science. Instructive derivations of important formulae,
usually omitted in an introductory text, are included here. This
feature offers a useful glimpse into the foundations of how the
discipline understands such topics as defects, phase equilibria,
and mechanical properties. Additionally, concepts such as
reciprocal space, electron energy band theory, and thermodynamics
enter the discussion earlier and in a more robust fashion than in
other texts.
Electronic Materials Science also features:
An orientation towards industry and academia drawn from the
author's experience in both arenas
Information on applications in semiconductors, optoelectronics,
photocells, and nanoelectronics
Problem sets and important references throughout
Flexibility for various pedagogical needs
Treating the subject with more depth than any other introductory
text, Electronic Materials Science prepares graduate and
upper-level undergraduate students for advanced topics in the
discipline and gives scientists in associated disciplines a clear
review of the field and its leading technologies.
