Optical Properties of Crystalline and Amorphous Semiconductors: Materials and Fundamental Principles presents an introduction to the fundamental optical properties of semiconductors. This book presents tutorial articles in the categories of materials and fundamental principles (Chapter 1), optical properties in the reststrahlen region (Chapter 2), those in the interband transition region (Chapters 3 and 4) and at or below the fundamental absorption edge (Chapter 5). Optical Properties of Crystalline and Amorphous Semiconductors: Materials and Fundamental Principles is presented in a form which could serve to teach the underlying concepts of semiconductor optical properties and their implementation. This book is an invaluable resource for device engineers, solid-state physicists, material scientists and students specializing in the fields of semiconductor physics and device engineering.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent review,
By Eduardo Menendez Proupin (Santiago de Chile) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Optical Properties of Crystalline Amorphous Semiconductors:: Materials and Fundamental Principles (Hardcover)
Excellent review of the linear optical properties of semiconductors. Very didactic and practical. The optical properties from the far infrared to the UV region are systematically taught, showing experimental data and theoretical models used to fit the spectra. It is appropriate for beginners, and numerous references are provided for the readers interested in details. I find this book so excellent that I will prepare my own course following it. The only shortcoming I find is the lack of comparison of the experimental spectra with the simulations based on Density Functional Theory and ab-initio methods, so important in our silicon era.
