Nanoscale devices differ from larger microscale devices because they depend on the physical phenomena and effects that are central to their operation. This textbook illuminates the behavior of nanoscale devices by connecting them to the electronic, as well as magnetic, optical and mechanical properties, which fundamentally affect nanoscale devices in fascinating ways. Their small size means that an understanding of the phenomena measured is even more important, as their effects are so dominant and the changes in scale of underlying energetics and response are significant. Examples of these include classical effects such as single electron effects, quantum effects such as the states accessible as well as their properties; ensemble effects ranging from consequences of the laws of numbers to changes in properties arising from different magnitudes of the interactions, and others. These interactions, with the limits on size, make their physical behavior interesting, important and useful. The collection of four textbooks in the Electroscience Series culminates in a comprehensive understanding of nanoscale devices -- electronic, magnetic, mechanical and optical -- in the 4th volume. The series builds up to this last subject with volumes devoted to underlying semiconductor and solid-state physics.
"This book provides a unique, elegantly unified discussion of information processing and computation in nanoscale physical systems, encompassing the fundamental nature of information, its various physical embodiments, and phenomena that can be exploited at the nanoscale for information manipulation and storage. No other source provides such breadth of coverage, which here is combined with Tiwariâs characteristically deep, insightful exposition and perspective. As the first to appear in what is envisioned to be a four-volume series on "electroscience of the nanoscale", Nanoscale Device Physics will serve as a unique and highly valuable resource for advanced education in, and thoughtful reflection on, modern solid state device physics." - Edward T. Yu, Microelectronics Research Center, University of Texas at Austin
"This book written by Sandip Tiwari, a distinguished teacher and an accomplished researcher in the broad area of semiconductor science and engineering, should serve as a monumental textbook for advanced undergraduates and fresh graduate students and researchers reading physics and engineering of nanodevices. The appendices and exercises provided are informative and instructive to make the subject more comprehensible. The book is a timely and valuable contribution to the growing field of nanoscience and technology." - A.V. Narlikar, Physics Department, University of Hamburg and Indian National Science Academy, New Delhi, India
