Quantum Mechanics: An Introduction for Device Physicists and Electrical Engineers, 2nd Edition (Special Indian Edition - Reprint Year: 2020)  (English, Paperback, David K Ferry)

"This textbook provides a conk to course in quantutr n echar ics for students of smiconductor device physics and electrical engineel nig It provides the necessary background to quantum theory for those starting work on micro and nanoelectroniC structures and is particularly useful for those going on to work with semiconductors and lasers book was developed horn a course the author has taught 101 many years with a style and order of presentation of material specifically designed for this audience, introduces the main concepts of quantum mechanics which are important in everyday solid state physics and electronics Each toot( includes examples which have been carefully chosen to draw upon relevant expenmental research It also includes problems wrth solutions to test understanding of theory, For Me second edition significant new material, suggested by colleagues has been added to each chapter. providing updated connections with relevant experiments and device concepts New references and new problems are included The book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who have knowledge of semiconductor materials, linear vector spaces, and electromagnetic held theory Meat the author David K Ferry is Regents Professor of Engineering at Ancona State University He is a Fellow of the IEEE and the APS. He received the 1999 IEEE Cledo Brunetti Award. He is the author. or co-author of more than 350 refereed publications, including three textbooks. Front cover illustration: a fully self-consistent calculation of the electron density in a quantum wire in the region around a quantum point contact. The calculation was done by Richard Akis and Lucian Shifren, Department of Electrical Engineering, Arizona State University "
