Main description:
Newly developed semiconductor microstructures can now guide light and electrons resulting in important consequences for state-of-the-art electronic and photonic devices. This volume introduces a new generation of epitaxial microstructures. Special emphasis has been given to atomic control during growth and the interrelationship between the atomic arrangements and the properties of the structures.
Key - Atomic-level control of semiconductor microstructures
- Molecular beam epitaxy, metal-organic chemical vapor deposition
- Quantum wells and quantum wires
- Lasers, photon(IR)detectors, heterostructure transistors
