Semiconducting Thin Films of Aii Bvi Compounds (Hardcover)

This book has been written in response to the rapid development of thin films of semiconducting II-VI compounds observed since the 1960s, and especially their unique properties and perspectives of application in the construction of thin film electronic devices. The authors present the state of world research in this field. In addition to the work of other authors which have been cited and analysed, this material is reinforced by the results of the present authors' studies. The book claims to be a source of information and didactic help for scientists, technicians and advanced students, working in departments of physics and electronics in universities and polytechnics; and also for research institutes of the electronic industry. It will also be of use to readers working in other fields wishing to acquaint themselves with the subject. The material for this first English edition has been revised and up-dated to include the latest developments in the field, as well as including literature published to 1986, containing the latest results.
