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.

《半導體基礎》是一本易於理解的指南,介紹了半導體的工作原理和製造過程,適合沒有電子工程背景的專業人士和有興趣的讀者閱讀。半導體是幾乎所有現代電子設備的基礎。作者是這個領域的專家,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。書中有大量有用且具有說明性的圖畫、照片和圖表。
作者僅使用簡單的算術來幫助理解器件的操作和應用。書中回顧了使用半導體材料(如二極管和晶體管)可以構建的關鍵器件,以及基於這兩個元件的所有大型電子系統,如計算機、記憶體、液晶顯示器以及激光、LED和紅外線探測器等相關技術。本書還探討了集成電路的製造過程。作者最後對未來的發展做出了一些預測。這本重要的書籍具有以下特點:
- 以定性解釋和類比的方式提供了易於理解的半導體指南,最小限度地使用數學和方程式。
- 以結構良好且邏輯清晰的形式呈現材料。
- 從器件物理基礎到晶體管的形成和製造,以及電路的操作,構建電子設備和系統的過程進行了探討。
- 包含有關p-n接面、晶體管和集成電路的實際應用的信息,將理論與實踐相結合。
《半導體基礎》適合對技術感興趣的任何人,無論是在半導體實驗室工作還是在半導體行業工作,都能清楚地了解半導體的工作原理和製造過程。
