Spectroscopy of Semiconductors : Numerical Analysis Bridging Quantum Mechanics and Experiments Optical Spectral Measurement Introduction to Physics and Optical Properties of Semiconductors Reflection and Transmission Photoluminescence Modulation Spectroscopy Photocurrent Spectroscopy Optical Properties of Fluorescent Colloidal Quantum Dots Fortran and Matlab Computer Codes The science and technology related to semiconductors have received significant attention for applications in various fields including microelectronics nanophotonics and biotechnologies. Understanding of semiconductors has advanced to such a level that we are now able to design novel system complexes before we go for the proof of principle experimental demonstration. This book explains the experimental setups for optical spectral analysis of semiconductors and describes the experimental methods and the basic quantum mechanical principles underlying the fast developing nanotechnology for semiconductors. Further it uses numerous case studies with detailed theoretical discussions and calculations to demonstrate the data analysis. Covering structures ranging from bulk to the nanoscale it examines applications in the semiconductor industry and biomedicine. Starting from the most basic physics of geometric optics wave optics quantum mechanics solid state physics it provides a self contained resource on the subject for university undergraduates. The book can be further used as a toolbox for researching and developing semiconductor nanotechnology based on spectroscopy
