Description:In the past, infrared imaging has been used exclusively for military applications. In fact, it can also be useful in a wide range of scientific and commercial applications. However, its wide spread use was impeded by the scarcity of the imaging systems and its high cost. Recently, there is an emerging infrared technology based on quantum well intersubband transition in III-V compound semiconductors. With the new technology, these impedances can be eliminated and a new era of infrared imaging is in sight. This book is designed to give a systematic description on the underlying physics of the new detectors and other issues related to infrared imaging.Contents: FundamentalsEnergy Levels in One-Dimensional Quantum WellsQuantum Wells in Crystal LatticesQuantum Wells in the Presence of InteractionIntersubband Transition in Quantum WellsOptical Coupling for Quantum Well Infrared PhotodetectorsHot-Electron TransistorsExcitation Hot-Electron Spectroscopy of Quantum WellsTransport Properties of Multiple Quantum Well StructuresQuantum Well Infrared PhotodetectorInfrared Hot-Electron TransistorNoise Properties of Infrared Hot-Electron TransistorMulti-Color QWIP and IHETPerformance of Quantum Well Infrared PhotodetectorsReadership: Solid state physicists, device physicists, materials scientists and infrared engineers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
