Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Conductors, insulators, and electric circuits -- 2.1. Conductors versus insulators -- 2.2. Electric circuits : voltage and current -- 2.3. Electrical resistance, current, and Ohm's law -- 2.4. Summary 3. Early developments in semiconductors -- 3.1. Changes with temperature and light -- 3.2. Rectifiers -- 3.3. Developments towards a theory 4. Band theory and impurities in semiconductors -- 4.1. The band theory of solids -- 4.2. Impurities -- 4.3. Donor impurities -- 4.4. Acceptor impurities -- 4.5. Summary 5. Diodes and solar cells -- 5.1. Diodes -- 5.2. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) -- 5.3. Solar cells -- 5.4. Summary 6. Transistors and logic circuits -- 6.1. Junction transistors -- 6.2. Field-effect transistors -- 6.3. Logic gates -- 6.4. Logic circuits -- 6.5. Summary -- 7. Development of semiconductors to modern devices.
Summary: Semiconductors and Modern Electronics is a brief introduction to the physics behind semiconductor technologies. Chuck Winrich, a physics professor at Babson College, explores the topic of semiconductors from a qualitative approach to understanding the theories and models used to explain semiconductor devices. Applications of semiconductors are explored and understood through the models developed in the book. The qualitative approach in this book is intended to bring the advanced ideas behind semiconductors to the broader audience of students who will not major in physics.
