Complete guide to Semiconductor Devices provides an overview of a complete collection of semiconductor devices. As a guide, the essential informations are presented for a quick, practical, and balanced survey. Each short chapter is devoted to only one specific device and is self-contained, enabling the readers to go directly to the intended device. Chapters are written to be independent with minimum cross references to other chapters. A special format for each chapter answers basic questions about each device: (1) History-when was it invented and by whom ? (2) Structure-how is it made? (3) Characteristics-how does it work? (4) Applications- what is it for? With a final section-Related Devices-added to many of the 67 chapters, more than 180 device structures are covered, and more than 800 references cited for further in-depth studies. Together with more than 480 illustrations are extensive appendixes, Complete Guide to Semiconductor Devices is a pragmatic handbook that offers an engineering approach to the study of semiconductor devices.
