Overview
- Provides the theoretical basis and experimental knowledge underlying the electronic and optical properties of heterostructuresan area crucial to modern semiconductor design * Describes the electronic properties of various types of heterostructures, including discussions on complex band-structure effects, localized states, tunneling phenomena, and excitonic states * Also focuses on optical properties, including intraband absorption, luminescence and recombination, and Raman scattering * Presents an overview of some of the applications that make use of the physics discussed *
- Appendices provide background information on band structure theory, kinetic theory, electromagnetic modes, and Coulomb effects
