This textbook describes the physics of semiconductor nanostructures
with emphasis on their electronic transport properties. At its
heart are five fundamental transport phenomena: quantized
conductance, tunnelling transport, the Aharonov-Bohm effect, the
quantum Hall effect, and the Coulomb blockade effect.
The book starts out with the basics of solid state and
semiconductor physics, such as crystal structure, band structure,
and effective mass approximation, including spin-orbit interaction
effects important for research in semiconductor spintronics. It
contains material aspects such as band engineering, doping, gating,
and a selection of nanostructure fabrication techniques. The book
discusses the Drude-Boltzmann-Sommerfeld transport theory as well
as conductance quantization and the Landauer-Buttiker theory. These
concepts are extended to mesoscopic interference phenomena and
decoherence, magnetotransport, and interaction effects in
quantum-confined systems, guiding the reader from fundamental
effects to specialized state-of-the-art experiments.
The book will provide a thorough introduction into the topic for
graduate and PhD students, and will be a useful reference for
lecturers and researchers working in the field.
