✦ Synopsis

''Written for students and professionals within the fields of Materials Science and Engineering, Electronics Engineering, and Applied Physics, this reference provides a systematic means to synthesize circuits with disordered semiconductor field effect transistors (DS-FETs) and explanation of the issues involved. It offers examples on how self-assembly, structural and functional, can be used as a powerful tool in circuit synthesis and provides starting threads for new and future research. The first book to focus on disordered semiconductors, the text covers theory, materials, techniques, and applications, as well as offer practical solutions for semiconductor use in devices''-- Read more...
