1 comments about Semiconductor Materials (Physical Sciences References).

1. Brings together under one cover a diverse compendium of physical, electronic, magneto-optical and other properties of the most common semiconductor materials, including of course silicon and gallium arsenide.

   There is also data on less frequently used compounds, like other 3-5 and 2-6 materials. Typically, these might be more of interest to a physicist or chemist than to an engineer, as these are more research oriented.

   Various semiconductor devices are also described, like tunnel diodes and Zener diodes. Here, perhaps, this book faces more competition from other books that are explicitly on semiconductor devices. In this book, the descriptions are mostly just that, descriptions. Whereas other semiconductor texts would give lengthier, explanatory passages.

   The book claims to describe the transitioning from Si to GaAs in MOSFET manufacturing. A bit of a stretch. Yes, GaAs is heavier used in certain, high speed devices. But the vast majority of MOSFETS are still Si based, and there is no indication of that changing.

   In summary, the book is more of a reference than a text. Its best value is in the gathering of the material properties and the references therein to the original papers from which these are collated.

1 comments about Atom-Field Interactions and Dressed Atoms (Cambridge Studies in Modern Optics).

1. 'Atom-Field Interactions and Dressed Atoms' is a useful book for graduate students and reseachers in the field of Quantum Optics. The interaction between atoms and electromagnetic fields is a research area which demands strong backgound in mathematics and numerical simulations. From this point of view the authors give a very good approach of the subject. Furthermore, modern topics in Atom Optics are highlighted. This book could be a guide for researchers dealing with Atom Optics.

   thank you




2. An introduction to electromagnetic rough surface scattering in the high frequency domain. Its an old text and there are numerous errors in printing as I found out when using it for research work, but nonetheless a good introduction, its clear and not too advanced in contrast to other texts which seem to thrive on jumping into difficult analysis without preparation. It covers many areas in rough surface scattering and uses both analytic functions for the surface and later a random function approach. The random function approach has now become standard and misses some of the interesting aspects and details in the earlier one eg fractal surfaces etc.

   The book after introducing the characteristic aspects of EM scattering then proceeds onto practical engineering aspects such as remote sensing and the like. This was of course brand new at the time, 1963. For a modern review see the book by J.A. Ogilvy "Theory of Wave Scattering from Random Rough Surfaces" which covers the new approaches to the subject since the 60's.

   Still an excellent book for the basics of EM scattering although one has to work through some of the results to be certain they are correct.

1. El nivel matematico baja bastante, me gustaba más la edicion que tenia con McGraw-Hill, en esta edicion se me hace demasiado simplista. Me gustaria saber que antes de comprarlo, el nivel matematico que tenia el libro mediante ver algunas paginas digitales del libro en amazon
