Semiconductor Optoelectronic Devices

Semiconductor Optoelectronic Devices by Bhattacharya, Pallab. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780134956565.

Appropriate for courses in Optoelectronics at senior/graduate level. A first course in semiconductors is a prerequisite. The first true introduction to semiconductor optoelectronic devices, this book provides an accessible, well-organized overview of optoelectric devices that emphasizes basic principles. Coverage begins with an optional review of key concepts―such as properties of compound semiconductors, quantum mechanics, semiconductor statistics, carrier transport properties, optical processes, and junction theory―then progress gradually through more advanced topics. The Second Edition has been both updated and expanded to include the recent developments in the field.
