This book serves as a comprehensive reference and graduate-level text on semiconductor heteroepitaxy, the crystal growth of semiconductor layers on dissimilar substrates for the purpose of making modern semiconductor devices, including high-speed transistors, lasers and detectors, digital circuits, photovoltaic cells, solid-state lighting, and sensors. The second edition of this book, which remains the top book in the field because of its comprehensive treatment and focus on principles, contains two entirely new chapters on metamorphic buffers and devices.

Zielgruppe

Graduate students and researchers in the field of semiconductor materials. It will serve as a graduate-level textbook as well as a reference book for professionals in the field, including university faculty, post-doctoral researchers and personnel in government and industrial research and development laboratories. As a text, the book may be used in a graduate course on semiconductor heteroepitaxy, characterization of semiconductors, metamorphic semiconductor devices or another closely related topic.
