Understanding the Physics of Resonant Tunneling Diodes

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the physics of resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs), focusing on resources for further learning, including papers and books. Participants share their experiences and challenges in accessing literature on the topic, particularly from different geographical locations.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks recommendations for literature on the physics of RTDs after finding the topic interesting in a microelectronics course.
  • Another participant suggests that a Google search yields many resources, including a book available on Amazon.
  • A participant expresses concern about the affordability of resources and the difficulty of obtaining them in Serbia.
  • Another participant mentions that eBay offers a selection of used books at lower prices with international shipping options.
  • A later reply indicates a willingness to explore the eBay option for acquiring literature.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the interest in learning more about RTDs and the challenges related to accessing literature, but there is no consensus on specific resources or solutions to the accessibility issue.

Contextual Notes

Participants express limitations based on geographical and financial constraints regarding the acquisition of literature on RTDs.

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!
