Semiconductor Physics Modeling Nanostructured Semiconductors (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798336599725)

Semiconductor Physics Modeling Nanostructured Semiconductors covers everything you need to know about modeling nanostructured semiconductors. Starting with an introduction to the unique properties and challenges of nanostructured materials, this book takes you on a journey through various nanostructures, such as quantum wells, wires, dots, and heterojunctions. You will gain a deep understanding of electron and hole dynamics across nanoscale interfaces, explore the effects of scaling and quantum mechanics in nano-MOSFETs, and learn how to design and tailor band structures in nanostructures.

The book also delves into the modeling of light-matter interactions in photonic crystal structures, and the advanced simulation of thermal and electrical transport in nanostructured thermoelectrics. You will discover the fascinating world of plasmonic nanostructures and their applications, explore carrier lifetimes, mobility, and recombination processes in nanostructures, and learn how to model semiconductor nanostructures at the atomic level.

Self-assembly processes, strain engineering, nanostructure fabrication techniques, and the modeling of photovoltaic mechanisms in nanostructured solar cells are also covered in detail. You will gain insights into excitonic effects, photoluminescence, and multiphysical simulations. The book even explores hybrid nanostructures, graphene, and other 2D materials, as well as quantum transport phenomena in reduced dimensions.

With Python code provided for each chapter, this book offers a hands-on learning experience that will enhance your understanding and skills in nanostructured semiconductor modeling.
