This invaluable textbook presents the basic elements needed to
understand and research into semiconductor physics. It deals with
elementary excitations in bulk and low-dimensional semiconductors,
including quantum wells, quantum wires and quantum dots. The basic
principles underlying optical nonlinearities are developed,
including excitonic and many-body plasma effects. Fundamentals of
optical bistability, semiconductor lasers, femtosecond excitation,
the optical Stark effect, the semiconductor photon echo,
magneto-optic effects, as well as bulk and quantum-confined
FranzKeldysh effects, are covered. The material is presented in
sufficient detail for graduate students and researchers with a
general background in quantum mechanics.
This fifth edition includes an additional chapter on 'Quantum
Optical Effects' where the theory of quantum optical effects in
semiconductors is detailed. Besides deriving the 'semiconductor
luminescence equations' and the expression for the stationary
luminescence spectrum, the results are presented to show the
importance of Coulombic effects on the semiconductor luminescence
and to elucidate the role of excitonic populations.
