Download or read book III V and IV IV Materials and Processing Challenges for Highly Integrated Microelectronics and Optoelectronics Volume 535 written by S. A. Ringel and published by . This book was released on 1999-08-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the proceedings of two symposia - 'Integration of Dissimilar Materials in Micro- and Optoelectronics' and 'III-V and SiGe Group IV Device/IC Processing Challenges for Commercial Applications'. The publication stems from the desire to achieve new levels of device functionality and higher levels of performance via integration of devices based on dissimilar semiconductors, where the constraint of lattice-matching on the breadth of attainable devices can be reduced. It covers fundamental topics germane to integration of a wide range of dissimilar materials spanning wide-bandgap III-V nitrides, III-V/Si integration, II-VI and II-VI/III-V compounds, heterovalent structures, oxides, photonic bandgap structures and others. Topics such as compliancy, dislocation control, selective area growth, bonding methodologies, etc. are featured. It also addresses processing issues in the manufacturing of III-V and Si-based heterostructures for commercial products. Here, the success enjoyed by silicon germanium technology is contrasted by the promise of silicon-carbon alloys which have opportunities and challenges for the new generation of process developers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on basic and applied materials research related to compound semiconductors. Emphasis is on materials that are used, or have clear potential use, as thin films in solar cells and spin-off applications. Relevant materials include Cu(In, Ga, Al)(Se, S)2, MX (M = Zn and/or Cd; X = S, Se and/or Te), III-V photovoltaic materials, and transparent conducting oxides. Understanding fundamental materials limitations, real or perceived, are of particular interest. Highlights center on: materials-related prerequisites for high-efficiency thin-film solar cells; the dynamics of chemical treatment/etching of CdTe with emphasis on back contacting; high-resolution microanalysis of grain boundaries and surface chemistry and how they affect device performance; the role and significance of transparent conducting oxides in device performance; and the electronic structure of highly mismatched III-V alloy semiconductors.

Download or read book Dilute Nitride Semiconductors written by Mohamed Henini and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-12-15 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - This book contains full account of the advances made in the dilute nitrides, providing an excellent starting point for workers entering the field. - It gives the reader easier access and better evaluation of future trends, Conveying important results and current ideas. - Includes a generous list of references at the end of each chapter, providing a useful reference to the III-V-N based semiconductors research community. The high speed lasers operating at wavelength of 1.3 μm and 1.55 μm are very important light sources in optical communications since the optical fiber used as a transport media of light has dispersion and attenuation minima, respectively, at these wavelengths. These long wavelengths are exclusively made of InP-based material InGaAsP/InP. However, there are several problems with this material system. Therefore, there has been considerable effort for many years to fabricate long wavelength laser structures on other substrates, especially GaAs. The manufacturing costs of GaAs-based components are lower and the processing techniques are well developed. In 1996 a novel quaternary material GaInAsN was proposed which could avoid several problems with the existing technology of long wavelength lasers. In this book, several leaders in the field of dilute nitrides will cover the growth and processing, experimental characterization, theoretical understanding, and device design and fabrication of this recently developed class of semiconductor alloys. They will review their current status of research and development. Dilute Nitrides (III-N-V) Semiconductors: Physics and Technology organises the most current available data, providing a ready source of information on a wide range of topics, making this book essential reading for all post graduate students, researchers and practitioners in the fields of Semiconductors and Optoelectronics - Contains full account of the advances made in the dilute nitrides, providing an excellent starting point for workers entering the field - Gives the reader easier access and better evaluation of future trends, conveying important results and current ideas - Includes a generous list of references at the end of each chapter, providing a useful reference to the III-V-N based semiconductors research community

Download or read book X Ray Absorption Spectroscopy of Semiconductors written by Claudia S. Schnohr and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-05 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful technique with which to probe the properties of matter, equally applicable to the solid, liquid and gas phases. Semiconductors are arguably our most technologically-relevant group of materials given they form the basis of the electronic and photonic devices that now so widely permeate almost every aspect of our society. The most effective utilisation of these materials today and tomorrow necessitates a detailed knowledge of their structural and vibrational properties. Through a series of comprehensive reviews, this book demonstrates the versatility of XAS for semiconductor materials analysis and presents important research activities in this ever growing field. A short introduction of the technique, aimed primarily at XAS newcomers, is followed by twenty independent chapters dedicated to distinct groups of materials. Topics span dopants in crystalline semiconductors and disorder in amorphous semiconductors to alloys and nanometric material as well as in-situ measurements of the effects of temperature and pressure. Summarizing research in their respective fields, the authors highlight important experimental findings and demonstrate the capabilities and applications of the XAS technique. This book provides a comprehensive review and valuable reference guide for both XAS newcomers and experts involved in semiconductor materials research.

Download or read book Frontiers in Surface Nanophotonics written by David L. Andrews and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-08-23 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of surface effects in optical phenomena in nanoscience, from two different perspectives. When systems are reduced in volume, the ratio of surface versus volume increases. At the level of single nanostructures this translates into an enhanced role of interfacial chemistry and thermodynamics. At the level of systems of nanostructures, it translates into larger density on interfaces, which in turn leads to such intriguing collective effects as plasmonics or multiple reflection and refraction phenomena. The book highlights both perspectives presenting sample applications. Without claiming to be exhaustive, the book aims to stimulate readers in this potentially rewarding field.
