商品描述
An accessible guide to how semiconductor electronics work and how they are manufactured, for professionals and interested readers with no electronics engineering background
Semiconductor Basics is an accessible guide to how semiconductors work. It is written for readers without an electronic engineering background. Semiconductors are the basis for almost all modern electronic devices. The author--an expert on the topic--explores the fundamental concepts of what a semiconductor is, the different types in use, and how they are different from conductors and insulators. The book has a large number of helpful and illustrative drawings, photos, and figures.
The author uses only simple arithmetic to help understand the device operation and applications. The book reviews the key devices that can be constructed using semiconductor materials such as diodes and transistors and all the large electronic systems based on these two component such as computers, memories, LCDs and related technology like Lasers LEDs and infrared detectors. The text also explores integrated circuits and explains how they are fabricated. The author concludes with some projections about what can be expected in the future. This important book:
- Offers an accessible guide to semiconductors using qualitative explanations and analogies, with minimal mathematics and equations
- Presents the material in a well-structured and logical format
- Explores topics from device physics fundamentals to transistor formation and fabrication and the operation of the circuits to build electronic devices and systems
- Includes information on practical applications of p-n junctions, transistors, and integrated circuits to link theory and practice
Written for anyone interested in the technology, working in semiconductor labs or in the semiconductor industry, Semiconductor Basics offers clear explanations about how semiconductors work and its manufacturing process.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
一本易於理解的半導體電子學運作及製造指南,適合沒有電子工程背景的專業人士和有興趣的讀者
半導體基礎 是一本易於理解的半導體運作指南,專為沒有電子工程背景的讀者撰寫。半導體是幾乎所有現代電子設備的基礎。作者是一位該領域的專家,探討了半導體的基本概念、不同類型的半導體以及它們與導體和絕緣體的區別。這本書包含大量有用且具說明性的插圖、照片和圖表。
作者僅使用簡單的算術來幫助理解設備的運作和應用。書中回顧了可以使用半導體材料構建的關鍵設備,如二極體和晶體管,以及基於這兩種元件的所有大型電子系統,如計算機、記憶體、液晶顯示器(LCD)及相關技術,如雷射、發光二極體(LED)和紅外線探測器。文本還探討了集成電路並解釋了它們的製造過程。作者最後對未來的預測進行了總結。這本重要的書籍:
- 提供了一本易於理解的半導體指南,使用定性解釋和類比,數學和方程式最少
- 以結構良好且合邏輯的格式呈現材料
- 探討從設備物理基礎到晶體管的形成和製造,以及構建電子設備和系統的電路運作的主題
- 包括有關p-n接面、晶體管和集成電路的實際應用資訊,以連結理論與實踐
這本書是為任何對該技術感興趣、在半導體實驗室或半導體行業工作的人撰寫的,半導體基礎 提供了有關半導體運作及其製造過程的清晰解釋。
