Can anyone suggest a thesis topic on semiconductor physics?

In summary, the conversation is about a student looking for a topic for their thesis study in semiconductor physics. They mention their interest in doping semiconductors and their advisor suggested focusing on gallium arsenide. Another person suggests topics such as carrier drift in electric and magnetic fields and recommends the book "Jacob Millman" for integrated electronics.

ok. I am an undergrad. I am interested in doping semicons. mathematical physics of semicons would also do. my adviser told me to focus on gallium arsenide. what then are good topics concerning doping gallium arsenide?

you can also make it on drift of carriers in electric and magnetic field...there are much more topics...this all about your interest n all. you can choose it from "Jacob Millman" for integrated electronics..i think this is a good book for semiconductors..
 

1. What is semiconductor physics?

Semiconductor physics is the study of the physical properties and behavior of materials that have semiconducting properties, such as silicon or germanium. These materials have a unique ability to conduct electricity under certain conditions, making them essential in modern electronic devices.
