Introductory Semiconductor Device Physics has been written specifically to address the needs of undergraduate students. It is not overly mathematical, and introduces only those physical concepts required for an understanding of the semiconductor devices being considered. The author's intuitive style, coupled with an extensive set of worked problems, make this the ideal introductory text for undergraduate students of electrical and electronic engineering, applied physics and related subjects.
