The past three decades have been a period where useful current and
voltage instabilities in solids have progressed from exciting
research problems to a wide variety of commercially available
devices. Materials and electronics research has led to devices such
as the tunnel (Esaki) diode, transferred electron (Gunn) diode,
avalanche diodes, real-space transfer devices, and the like. These
structures have proven to be very important in the generation,
amplification, switching, and processing of microwave signals up to
frequencies exceeding 100 GHz. In this treatise we focus on a
detailed theoretical understanding of devices of the kind that can
be made unstable against circuit oscillations, large amplitude
switching events, and in some cases, internal rearrangement of the
electric field or current density distribution. The book is aimed
at the semiconductor device physicist, engineer, and graduate
student. A knowledge of solid state physics on an elementary or
introductory level is assumed. Furthermore, we have geared the book
to device engineers and physicists desirous of obtaining an
understanding substantially deeper than that associated with a
small signal equivalent circuit approach. We focus on both
analytical and numerical treatment of specific device problems,
concerning ourselves with the mechanism that determines the
constitutive relation governing the device, the boundary conditions
(contact effects), and the effect of the local circuit environment.
