Download or read book Muon Spectroscopy written by Stephen J. Blundell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-10 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muons, radioactive particles produced in accelerators, have emerged as an important tool to study problems in condensed matter physics and chemistry. Beams of muons with all their spins polarized can be used to investigate a variety of static and dynamic effects and hence to deduce properties concerning magnetism, superconductivity, molecular or chemical dynamics and a large number of other phenomena. The technique was originally the preserve of a few specialists located in particle physics laboratories. Today it is used by scientists from a very wide range of scientific backgrounds and interests. This modern, pedagogic introduction to muon spectroscopy is written with the beginner in the field in mind, but also aims to serve as a reference for more experienced researchers. The key principles are illustrated by numerous practical examples of the application of the technique to different areas of science and there are many worked examples and problems provided to test understanding. The book vividly demonstrates the power of the technique to extract important information in many different scientific contexts, all stemming, ultimately, from the exquisite magnetic sensitivity of the implanted muon spin.

Download or read book Defect and Impurity Engineered Semiconductors II written by S. Ashok and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evolution of semiconductor devices of progressively higher performance has generally followed improved material quality with ever fewer defect concentrations. However, a shift in focus over the years has brought the realization that complete elimination of defects in semiconductors during growth and processing is neither desirable nor necessary. It is expected that the future role of defects in semiconductors will be one of control - in density, properties, spatial location, and perhaps even temporal variation during the operating lifetime of the device. This book explores the effective use of defect control at various facets of technology and widely different semiconductor materials systems. Topics include: grown-in defects in bulk crystals; doping issues; grown-in defects in thin films; doping and defect issues in wide-gap semiconductors; process-induced defects and gettering; defect properties, reactions, activation and passivation; ion implantation and irradiation effects; defects in devices and interfaces; plasma processing; defect characterization; and interfaces, quantum wells and superlattices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SERIES Since its inception in 1966, the series of numbered volumes known as Semiconductors and Semimetals has distinguished itself through the careful selection of well-known authors, editors, and contributors. The "Willardson and Beer" Series, as it is widely known, has succeeded in publishing numerous landmark volumes and chapters. Not only did many of these volumes make an impact at the time of their publication, but they continue to be well-cited years after their original release. Recently, Professor Eicke R. Weber of the University of California at Berkeley joined as a co-editor of the series. Professor Weber, a well-known expert in the field of semiconductor materials, will further contribute to continuing the series' tradition of publishing timely, highly relevant, and long-impacting volumes. Some of the recent volumes, such as Hydrogen in Semiconductors, Imperfections in III/V Materials, Epitaxial Microstructures, High-Speed Heterostructure Devices, Oxygen in Silicon, and others promise indeed that this tradition will be maintained and even expanded. Reflecting the truly interdisciplinary nature of the field that the series covers, the volumes in Semiconductors and Semimetals have been and will continue to be of great interest to physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and device engineers in modern industry. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE VOLUME This volume has contributions on Advanced Characterization Techniques with a focus on defect identification. The combination of beam techniques with electrical and optical characterization has not been discussed elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the deliberate introduction and manipulation of defects and impurities in order to engineer desired properties in semiconductor materials and devices. In view of current exciting developments in wide-bandgap semiconductors like GaN for blue light emission, as well as high-speed and high-temperature electronics, dopant and defect issues relevant to these materials are addressed. Also featured are semiconductor nanocavities and nano-structures, with emphasis on the formation and impact of vacancy-type defects. Defect reaction problems pertaining to impurity gettering, precipitation and hydrogen passivation are specific examples of defect engineering that improve the electronic quality of the material. A number of papers also deal with characterization techniques needed to study and to identify defects in materials and device structures. Finally, papers also address issues such as interface control and passivation, application of ion implantation, plasma treatment and rapid thermal processing for creating/activating/suppressing trap levels, and device applications.
Download or read book Defects and Properties of Semiconductors written by J. Chikawa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-12-25 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains nearly all of the papers presented at the Symposium on "Defects and Qualities of Semiconductors" which was held in Tokyo on May 17-18, 1984, under the sponsorship of the SOCIETY OF NON-TRADITIONAL TECHNOLOGY. The Symposium was organized by the promoting committee of the research project "Quality Developement of Semiconductors by Utilization of Crystal Defects" sponsored by the Science and Technology Agency of Japan. Defect study in semiconductor engineering started originally with seeking methods how to suppress generation of harmful defects during device processing in order to achieve a high yield of device fabrication. Recently, a new trend has appeared in which crystal defects are positively utilized to improve the device performance and reliability. A typical example is the intrinsic gettering technique for Czochralski silicon. Thus, a new term "DEFECT ENGINEERING" was born. It is becoming more important to control density and distribution of defects than to eliminate all the defects. Very precise and deep knowledge on defects is required to establish such techniques as generation and development of defects desired depending on type of devices and degree of integration. Electrical, optical and mechanical effects of defects should be also understood correctly. Such knowledge is essential even for eliminating defects from some specified device regions. It is the time now to investigate defect properties and defect kinetics in an energetic way. From this point of view, all the speakers in this symposium were invited among the most active investigators in the field of defect engineering in Japan.
