Understanding the Physics of Resonant Tunneling Diodes

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding resources to learn about the physics of resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs). A user expresses interest in further studying RTDs after a course in microelectronics and nanoelectronics but lacks recommendations from their professor. Suggestions include searching online for academic papers and books, with a mention of Amazon as a potential source. The user also notes financial constraints and shipping issues from Western countries, but another participant recommends checking eBay for affordable used books with international shipping. The conversation highlights the importance of accessible educational resources for those interested in advanced electronics topics.

Hello :) ,

Does anyone know some good paper or book from were it's possible to learn physics behind of work of resonant tunneling diode(RTD)? In last semester I had course in ˝microelectronics and nanoelectronics˝ and we studied basic principle on which RTD works, and it was very interesting to me, so I would like to learn more about it. I asked professor for some additional literature, but I had nothing from there.

So if someone have some suggestion, please tell me about it :).

Thanks!

Sounds interesting. A Google search gives lots of hits -- you probably have seem most of them by now. There's a book at Amazon on the first page of hits that may be of help:

Thanks :) , I saw it. But there is a problem with that, because I don't have that much money for that :( , and I don't live in western countries so I don't think it could be sent to me, here in Serbia :(

Ebay offers wide selection of used books with a cheap price, and worldwide delivery within 2 weeks
 
OK, obviously I'am not well informed about that, so I'll see about that. Thanks!
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
