Advanced Semiconductor Devices

Annotation. The Proceedings cover five emerging areas of advanced device technology: wide band gap devices, terahertz and millimeter waves, nanometer silicon and silicongermanium devices, nanoelectronics and ballistic devices, and characterization of advanced photonic and electronic devices. The papers by leading researchers in high speed and advanced electronic and photonic technology presented many "first" and break-through results, as has become a tradition with the Lester Eastman Conference and will allow readers to get up-to-date information about emerging trends and future directions of these technologies. Key papers in each section present snap-shot and mini reviews of the state-of-the art and of "hot off the press" results making the book to be required reading for engineers, scientists, and students working on advanced and high speed device technology.
