This book describes semiconductors from a materials science perspective rather than from condensed matter physics or electrical engineering viewpoints. It includes discussion of current approaches to organic materials for electronic devices. It further describes the fundamental aspects of thin film nucleation and growth, and the most common physical and chemical vapor deposition techniques. Examples of the application of the concepts in each chapter to specific problems or situations are included, along with recommended readings and homework problems.

An Environment of Challenges.- The Physics of Solids.- Overview of Electronic Devices.- Aspects of Materials Science.- Engineering Electronic Structure.- Semiconductor Alloys.- Defects in Semiconductors.- Amorphous Semiconductors.- Organic Semiconductors.- Thin Film Growth Processes.- Physical Vapor Deposition.- Chemical Vapor Deposition.

Angus Rockett is a Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is a fellow of the AVS and teaches short courses and tuitorials for the AVS, MRS and IEEE. He has in excess of 120 published journal articles and conference proceedings and has conducted research in a wide variety of thin film and electronic materials topics. He received a B.S. in Physics from Brown University in 1980 and a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois in Materials Science in 1986. He has been a visiting scientist at the Uppsala University in Sweden, the Hahn Meitner Institute in Berlin, Germany and has served as a senior program administrator at the U.S. Department of Energy in Germantown, Maryland.
