Physics of Semiconductor Devices

This textbook describes the basic physics of semiconductors, including the hierarchy of transport models, and connects the theory with the functioning of actual semiconductor devices.  Details are worked out carefully and derived from the basic physical concepts, while keeping the internal coherence...
