Boer, Survey of Semiconductor Physics

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the comprehensive book "Boer, Survey of Semiconductor Physics," which spans 1438 pages and covers essential topics such as p-n junctions, metal-semiconductor contacts, and the operation of semiconductor devices including diodes, LEDs, solar cells, transistors, and MOSFETs. The book is in hardcover with a flawless dust jacket and minimal markings, although the pages show signs of aging. The author found it indispensable for developing high-power RF switching devices. Additionally, 20% of proceeds from the sale will be donated to the American Physical Society for educational and advocacy purposes.

Unbelievably complete work (1438 pages!) covering all aspects of p-n junctions, metal-semiconductor contacts, phonon and photon interactions, and the operation of common semiconductor devices from diodes and LEDs to solar cells to transistors and MOSFETs. Hardcover book with flawless dust jacket. Free of markings except for small name stamps on inside cover and flyleaf. Pages are tanned with age. I found this book indispensable when I was developing high-power RF switching devices--but those days are long over for me, so it's time to let it go.
