These August to September 1995 proceedings papers respond to the international symposium's theme of "Technologies for Future Electronics and Optoelectronics Industries." Since compound semiconductors represent only a small percent of the billion dollar semiconductor industry, the discussions are keen to emphasize the indispensability of compound semiconductors to satellite communications, and also present research breakthroughs enabling the technology to expand its market. Two new devices presented at the conference include the wide band gap semiconductors, and plasma-wave electronic devises expected to operate in the terahertz range. Other areas of interest featured in this collection include blue and UV light emitters, high speed and surface emitting lasers, characterization, modelling, simulation, fabrication and parameter extraction for devices, quantum cascade lasers, novel quantum devices, quantum dot devices, laser-microwave interaction, and optical interconnects. Contains photographs and illustrations. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
Compound Semiconductors 1995 focuses on emerging applications for GaAs and other compound semiconductors, such as InP, GaN, GaSb, ZnSe, and SiC, in the electronics and optoelectronics industries. The book presents the research and development work in all aspects of compound semiconductors. It reflects the maturity of GaAs as a semiconductor material and the rapidly increasing pool of research information on many other compound semiconductors. Covering the full breadth of the subject, from growth through processing to devices and integrated circuits, this volume provides researchers in materials science, device physics, condensed matter physics, and electrical and electronic engineering with a comprehensive overview of developments in this well-established research area.
