This book focuses on the theory of phonon interactions in nanoscale
structures with particular emphasis on modern electronic and
optoelectronic devices. The continuing progress in the fabrication
of semiconductor nanostructures with lower dimensional features has
led to devices with enhanced functionality and even novel devices
with new operating principles. The critical role of phonon effects
in such semiconductor devices is well known. There is therefore a
great need for a greater awareness and understanding of confined
phonon effects. A key goal of this book is to describe tractable
models of confined phonons and how these are applied to
calculations of basic properties and phenomena of semiconductor
heterostructures. The level of presentation is appropriate for
undergraduate and graduate students in physics and engineering with
some background in quantum mechanics and solid state physics or
devices. A basic understanding of electromagnetism and classical
acoustics is assumed.
