By: Material type: TextTextSeries: Lessons from nanoscience: a lecture notes series ; v 1.Publication details: Singapore ; World Scientific, ©2012.Description: xvi, 473 p. : ill. ; 24 cmISBN:
  • 9789814335294 (pbk.)
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 621.381 23 D234
Contents:
1. The bottom-up approach -- 2. Why electrons flow: 3. The elastic resistor: 4. Ballistic and diffusive transport: 5. Conductivity: 6. Diffusion equation for ballistic transport: 7. What about drift?: 8. Electrostatics is important: 9. Smart contacts: 10. Thermoelectricity: 11. Phonon transport: 12. Measuring electrochemical potentials: 13. Hall effect: 14. Spin valve: 15. Kubo formula: 16. Second law: 17. Fuel value of information: 18.The model: 19. Non-equilibrium Green's functions (NEGF): 20. Can two offer less resistance than one?: 21. Quantum of conductance: 22. Rotating an electron: 23. Does NEGF include "Everything"?: 24. The quantum and the classical: Appendices.
Summary: Includes lectures about a less-appreciated by-product of the microelectronics revolution, namely the deeper understanding of current flow, energy exchange and device operation that it has enabled, which forms the basis for what we call the bottom-up approach. The book assumes very little background beyond linear algebra and differential equations.
