Semiconductor Glossary

A Resource for Semiconductor Community

Semiconductor Glossary is a one of a kind contribution to the pool of publications in the field of semiconductor science and engineering. It was conceived in recognition of an apparent lack of references that would provide brief, straightforward explanations of terms and terminology in the area of advanced semiconductor materials, devices, and processes with emphasis on the most current developments across all areas of nanoelectronics and nanophotonics.

With over 2,000 terms defined and explained, the Second Edition of Semiconductor Glossary is the most complete reference in the field of semiconductors on the market today. Using his over 40 years of experience in advanced semiconductor research and teaching, the author selected the terms and then defined and explained them with a broad spectrum of readers in mind. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, semiconductor professionals at all levels, as well as people with just a general interest in semiconductors should all find Semiconductor Glossary to be a useful resource.

Readership: Undergraduate, graduate student, practitioners, academia in electrical & electronic engineering, materials engineering, semiconductors and related areas, as well as innovation/technology, and intellectual property experts.
Key Features:

• With over 2,000 terms in the area of semiconductor science and engineering are defined and explained. It is a second edition of Semiconductor Glossary replacing the first edition published in 2004 with some 600 new terms defined including many which were only recently introduced to the semiconductor terminology
• No publication in the area of semiconductor science and engineering featuring the same scope, breadth and format is available on the market today
• The author has over 40-years' experience in advanced research and teaching in the area of semiconductor science and engineering at the major research universities
