Metal-semiconductor Contacts: No 19 (Electrical & Electronic Engineering Monographs) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

In modern semiconductor technology, contacts between semiconducting devices and the metal conductors that connect them with the rest of the system are of fundamental importance. This book deals with the basic science of such contacts, and discusses the electrical properties that are relevant to semiconductor technology. The topics covered include the mechanism of formation of Schottky barriers, the current/voltage relationship, the capacitance of rectifying contacts, and practical methods of fabricating contacts. The practical implications are emphasized wherever relevant to device technology, though there is no treatment of devices themselves. The main difference between this second edition and the first, is the expanded treatment of the physics of Schottky-barrier formation, together with some refinements in the discussion of electrical characteristics and of the effect of deep levels. The work is designed to be of value to semiconductor technologists and at physicists engaged in research on semiconductor interfaces as well as postgraduate and third year students.
