Physics of Electronic Devices [Hardcover] [Jan 01, 2016] Babaniyi Babatope, Akogwu Onobu

The word electronics is derived from electron mechanics, which means to study the behavior of an electron under different conditions of applied electric field. The device which controls the flow of electrons is called electronic device. These devices are the main building blocks of electronic circuits. Electronic devices are playing a major role in everyday life. The various electronic devices we use in everyday life include mobile phones, digital camera, ATM, pen drive television and much more. This book covers the physical phenomena involved in the operation of semiconductor devices, and shows how the phenomena determine the properties of specific devices such as transistors, light emitting diodes and semiconductor lasers.
