Product Description
Although roughly a half-century old, the field of study associated with semiconductor devices continues to be dynamic and exciting. New and improved devices are being developed at an almost frantic pace. While the number of devices in complex integrated circuits increases and the size of chips decreases, semiconductor properties are now being engineered to fit design specifications. Semiconductor Device Fundamentals serves as an excellent introduction to this fascinating field. Based in part on the Modular Series on Solid State Devices, this textbook explains the basic terminology, models, properties, and concepts associated with semiconductors and semiconductor devices. The book provides detailed insight into the internal workings of "building block" device structures and systematically develops the analytical tools needed to solve practical device problems.

 Good knowledge in semiconductor from the prospective of Physics December 22, 2007
This Books provides a good idea in Semiconductor material for Physics Major students and Engineering students. This explains about solid state physics.

Very good book July 10, 2007
We use it as our textbook for an undergraduate course at Carnegie Mellon University.
This book is fundamental enough. Once you are patient enough to read it, you will get a lot.
It teaches concepts step by step, very good for beginners!
Great Semiconductor Book March 18, 2007
Reads like a novel. This book teaches semiconductor theory very well. It would be nice if it had some practical realizations of the theory it teaches, but it is overall the best book you will find in introductory semiconductors.

I'm looking for a good reference book, for my PE exam. I bought this, kind of at Random. When I got it I was very dissapointed to see that it was written in 1996... This was written a year after I graduated from high school... Simiconductor devices have changed so much sense then... I hope it is a good book, but I wish I would have got a more recent book.
 Best Text I've Had November 8, 2005

While I maybe be biased in saying this is the best text I've had at a certain school (where the author teaches), I feel this book makes a solid effort at covering the material. The book is organized nicely and the end of chapter questions always relate to the chapter material.
The section right before the questions also helps direct the student to the chapter section pertaining most to the question. It has helped me save time in looking up information! The only thing I would like would be a few more examples. Overall, a well balanced book with adequate conceptual explanation and a fair amount of examples. With this textbook, a good professor (or some determination on your part) and some work, you will do well in a basic semiconductors course.
