Electronic Devices -- Please suggest a book for learning the basics

AI Thread Summary
For those seeking foundational knowledge in electronic devices, "The Art of Electronics" is highly recommended for its comprehensive coverage of topics, including semiconductors. Additionally, for individuals considering a career focused on the design and manufacturing of electronic components, a background in quantum physics is suggested to deepen understanding of the subject.

A book which can provide me basics on topics like semiconductors.
 
You can't go wrong with "The Art of Electronics."

But if you're planning more of a career in the field (making them, not using them), some quantum physics is in order.

yeah, agreed, Jeff ... still one of the better books around :smile:
 
The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...
I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
