Extended Defects in Semiconductors: Electronic Properties, Device Effects and Structures (半導體中的擴展缺陷：電子特性、裝置效應與結構)

Description

Covering topics that are especially important in electronic device development, this book surveys the properties, effects, roles and characterization of structurally extended defects in semiconductors. The basic properties of extended defects are outlined, and their effect on the electronic properties of semiconductors, their role in semiconductor devices, and techniques for their characterization are discussed. This text is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in materials science and engineering, and for those studying semiconductor physics.
