A mainstream, solid state book that represents a balance in orientation between a strong physics and a strong applications approach. This book has a unique chapter on the fabrication of devices; integrates a wealth of illustrations and pictorial representations; and contains an extensive discussion and analysis of the MOSFET because of its universal application in digital circuits.

Great book by a great autho

I had the pleasure of studying under Dr. Kano at Syracuse University. He was the absolute *BEST* professor in the EE program. This book puts into text all that he taught... invaluable. I have worked in VLSI/DSM circuit design for the last 10 years and find this book a great resource to have on the desk.

An excellent textbook.

This excellent introductory book provides a clear presentation about the field of semiconductors devices. The author not only has great efforts to make the material easy to understand but also has been careful to avoid compromising the accuracy and thoroughness of the material for which an understanding of the basic quantum mechanical concepts is necessary.

this book does not have enough examples

The qualitative analysis done in the book is excellent. However, there are not enough example to re-enforce the theory. When doing problems, I find them difficult to start. Also, many of the homework problems are similar, there can be different types of problems.

enought materiel but does not help you get fluid whit it

this book is not good for students that are going to be tested on the material and the reson is you have no way of knowing if the solutions found for the problems are correct or not, now this may not be important for sombody who's only seeking some extra knowledg. however for students hwo are going to be tested on the materiel, this book may not be convinient. when solving problems one may feel like shooting in the dark.....
