Polycrystalline Semiconductors Physical Properties and Applications: Proceedings of the International School of Materials Science and Technology at the Ettore Majorana Centre, Erice, Italy, July 1–15, 1984

In terms of structure, the field of semiconductors spans a wide range, from the perfect order of single crystals to the non-periodic, disordered amorph­ ous state. The two extremes of this range attract a large amount of inter­ est. On one side, glamorous novel phenomena are being found which can on...
