Download or read book Defects and Diffusion in II VI Compounds written by David J. Fisher and published by Trans Tech Publications Ltd. This book was released on 1999-08-25 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This group of materials tends to be relatively neglected, with regard to defect and diffusion studies, when compared with the other major semiconductor groups such as the elementals (Si, Ge) and the III-V compounds (especially GaAs). This is reflected by the fact that the volume of diffusion data is smaller than that for the other groups (see DDF volumes 153-155 on Si and volumes 157-159 on GaAs). Nevertheless MCT (HgCdTe), here classified as part of the (Cd,Hg)Te system, continues to be of great interest and this is reflected by the contents of this volume. In particular, the first of the original works in this book reviews the topic of diffusion in MCT.

In particular, the first of the original works in this book reviews the topic of diffusion in MCT. The other papers discuss the topics of dislocations in molecular beam epitaxial ZnSe layers on GaAs(001), the interdiffusion of Mn and Mg in CdTe-based quantum wells - again reflecting the importance of the (Cd,Hg)Te system, and the transmission electron microscopic study of dislocations in ZnTe/GaAs epitaxial heterostructures. The general subject of grain-boundary diffusion is treated in two papers which consider the grain boundary to be a 3-dimensional structure, rather than adopting the traditional view of its being a merely 2-dimensional interface. Although the specific system analyzed experimentally here is metallic, rather than semiconducting, this innovative approach is very likely to be relevant to the boundaries between semiconductors; with their relatively complex structures.
Download or read book Narrow gap II VI Compounds for Optoelectronic and Electromagnetic Applications written by Peter Capper and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-10-31 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of narrow-gap II-VI materials is dominated by lhe compound mercury cadmium telluride, MCT or Hg1_ .. Cd .. Te. By varying the x value, material can be made to cover all the important infrared (lR) ranges of interest. It is probably true to say that MCT is the third most studied semiconductor after silicon and gallium arsenide. As current epitaxial layers of MCT are mainly grown on bulk CdTe family substrates these materials are included in this book, although strictly, of course, they are not 'narrow-gap'. This book is intended for readers who are either new to the field or are experienced workers in the field who need a comprehensive and up to date view of this rapidly expanding area. To satisfy the needs of the frrst group each chapter discusses the principles underlying each topic and some of the historical background before bringing the reader the most recent information available. For those currently in the field the book can be used as a collection of useful data, as a guide to the literature and as an overview of topics covering the wide range of work areas.

Download or read book Point Defects in Solids written by James H. Crawford and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 1 of Point Defects in Solids has as its major emphasis defects in ionic solids. Volume 2 now extends this emphasis to semiconductors. The first four chapters treat in some detail the creation, kinetic behavior, inter actions, and physical properties of both simple and composite defects in a variety of semiconducting systems. Also included, as in Vol. 1, are chapters on special topics, namely phonon-defect interactions and defects in organic crystals. Defect behavior in semiconductors has been a subject of considerable interest since the discovery some twenty-five years ago that fast neutron irradiation profoundly affected the electrical characteristics of germanium and silicon. Present-day interest has been stimulated by such semiconductor applications as solar cell power plants for space stations and satellites and semiconductor particle and y-ray detectors, since in both radiation damage can cause serious deterioration. Of even greater practical concern is the need to understand particle damage in order to capitalize upon the develop ing technique of ion implantation as a means of device fabrication. Although the periodic international conferences on radiation effects in semiconductors have served the valuable function of summarizing the extensive work being done in this field, these proceedings are much too detailed and lack the background discussion needed to make them useful to the novice.

This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for readers desiring a comprehensive analysis of the latest developments in widegap II-VI materials research for opto-electronic applications and basic insight into the fundamental underlying principles. Therefore, it is hoped that this book will serve two purposes. Firstly, to educate newcomers to this exciting area of physics and technology and, secondly, to provide specialists with useful references and new insights in related areas of II-VI materials research. The motivation for preparing this book originated from the need for a current review of this fertile and important field. A primary goal of this book is therefore to present an eclectic synthesis of these sometimes diverse fields of investigation. This book consists of three main sections, namely (1) Growth and Properties, (2) Materials Characterization and (3) Devices. Part One presents an overall perspective of the state of the art in the preparation of the widegap II-VI materials. Part Two concentrates on current topics pertinent to the characterization of these materials from the unique perspective of each of the authors. Part Three focuses on advances in the opto-electronic applications of these materials. The material in this section runs the gamut from addressing recent advances in device areas which date back to some of the earliest reported research in these materials, to tackling some quite new and exciting future directions.

Download or read book Atomic Diffusion in Semiconductors written by D. Shaw and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 615 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The diffusion or migration of atoms in matter, of whatever form, is a basic consequence of the existence of atoms. In metals, atomic diffusion has a well established position of importance as it is recognized that there are few metallurgical processes which do not embody the diffusion of one or more of the constituents. As regards semiconductors any thermal annealing treatment involves atomic diffusion. In semiconductor technology diffusion processes provide a vital and basic means of fabricating doped structures. Notwithstanding the importance of diffusion in the preparative processes of semiconductor structures and samples, the diffusion based aspects have acquired an empirical outlook verging almost on alchemy. The first attempt to present a systematic account of semiconductor diffusion processes was made by Boltaks [11 in 1961. During the decade since Boltaks' book appeared much work germane to understanding the atomic mechanisms responsible for diffusion in semiconductors has been published. The object of the present book is to give an account of, and to consolidate, present knowledge of semiconductor diffusion in terms of basic concepts of atomic migration in crystalline lattices. To this end, exhaustive compilations of empirical data have been avoided as these are available elsewhere [2, 31 : attention has been limited to considering evidence capable of yielding insight into the physical processes concerned in atomic diffusion.
