This book is not for begineer like me, I graduated as a Computer Engineer and really have problem learning this book. I suggest to read the Semiconductor Fundamentals same author before buying this book
 Complicated material written in a very concise manner. December 14, 2005
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
On a quick scan at first the material covered in this book appears intimidating. It covers concepts of quantum physics like Schroedinger equation; Blotch theorem; Kronig-Penney model; Brillouin zones and then covers the semiconductor physics as Fermi levels; carrier transportation. The book covers a lot of fairly complicated material in a very concise and explanatory manner. Just by the sheer difficulty of the material; I would suggest taking a course to help alleviate the pain of self-tutoring.
 Very nice book September 28, 2005

Very nice book. I especially liked the manner in which minimal essentials of solid-state physics was covered. In a short time you can get to know quite a bit of basic essentials of solid-state that a semiconductor device engr needs to know.
Excellent December 31, 2004

This is an excellent treatise on the theory of semiconductors which is essential in learning solid-state devices like basic pn junctions and MOS devices. This book lays the fundamentals needed for a good understanding of these devices. Very useful for advanced undergrads and grads. This may be used as a companion volume with Streetman & Banerjee. However all the books of this 'Purdue' series is excellent - they are concise, clear and advanced.

One more very good book from Pierret. A significant amount of the content is similar to the "Semiconductor Fundamentals" book from the same author. However the first chapters are different, and reffer to an introduction on Solid State Physics and Quantum Mechanics. If you cannot buy it at least get a copy from the library and take a look on it. It is worth!
