Solid State Electronic Devices

Solid State Electronic Devices, 7th Edition, is an introductory textbook designed to develop basic semiconductor physics concepts and examine modern electronic devices. The volume establishes foundational principles required to understand solid-state components and their applications in electronic and optoelectronic circuits.

Coverage introduces widely used semiconductor terminology and conduction processes in solids, connecting physical models to practical components. Topics address crystal properties, bulk and epitaxial growth methods, and excess carrier behavior such as optical absorption, photoconductivity, and carrier diffusion.

Designed for undergraduate electrical engineering students as well as practicing engineers and scientists, the text aims to prepare readers to study technical literature on emerging devices and applications.
