<p>In introductory solid-state physics texts we are introduced to the concept of a perfect crystalline solid with every atom in its proper place. This is a convenient first step in developing the concept of electronic band strucΒ ture, and from it deducing the general electronic and optical properti

<p>The systematic study of defects in semiconductors began in the early fifties. FrQm that time on many questions about the defect structure and properties have been anΒ swered, but many others are still a matter of investigation and discussion. Moreover, during these years new problems arose in con
<p>From its early beginning before the war, the field of semiconductors has developped as a classical example where the standard approximations of 'band theory' can be safely used to study its interesting electronic properties. Thus in these covalent crystals, the electronic structure is only weakly
<p>Volume 1 of Point Defects in Solids has as its major emphasis defects in ionic solids. Volume 2 now extends this emphasis to semiconductors. The first four chapters treat in some detail the creation, kinetic behavior, interΒ actions, and physical properties of both simple and composite defects in
<p>This volume, number 91 in the <i>Semiconductor and Semimetals</i> series, focuses on defects in semiconductors. Defects in semiconductors help to explain several phenomena, from diffusion to getter, and to draw theories on materials' behavior in response to electrical or mechanical fields.</p> <p
