'The author has made this book accessible to many readers
interested in learning about the fascinating world of
nanotechnology by limiting the necessary background for
understanding the book ... The book takes a very complex subject
and makes very clear explanations, with many illustrations, that
will give the reader an opportunity to understand these,
oftentimes, counterintuitive concepts. Understanding these concepts
allows one to more fully appreciate the sophistication of many of
todayaEURO (TM)s electronic devices.'IEEE Electrical Insulation
MagazineEveryone is familiar with the amazing performance of a
modern smartphone, powered by a billion-plus nanotransistors, each
having an active region that is barely a few hundred atoms long.
The same amazing technology has also led to a deeper understanding
of the nature of current flow and heat dissipation on an atomic
scale which is of broad relevance to the general problems of
non-equilibrium statistical mechanics that pervade many different
fields.This book is based on a set of two online courses originally
offered in 2012 on nanoHUB-U and more recently in 2015 on edX. In
preparing the second edition the author decided to split it into
parts A and B titled Basic Concepts and Quantum Transport
respectively, along the lines of the two courses. A list of
available video lectures corresponding to different sections of
this volume is provided upfront.To make these lectures accessible
to anyone in any branch of science or engineering, the author
assume very little background beyond linear algebra and
differential equations. However, the author will be discussing
advanced concepts that should be of interest even to specialists,
who are encouraged to look at his earlier books for additional
technical details.
