課程概述

1. Structure properties of Semiconductor: Crystal growth, crystal structures, strain in heterostructure, polar materials.
2. Reviews on quantum mechanic theory: Schrödinger equations, quantum well, time-independent/time independent perturbation theory.
3. Semiconductor band structure: Bloch theorem of crystal, tight binding method, spin orbit coupling, and k.p method.
4. Band structure modification: Band structure of alloys, Band structure in quantum well and quantum dot, strain and deformation potential theory, polar heterostructures.
5. Transport and Scattering theory: Defect and carrier-carrier scattering (ionized impurity scattering, charged dislocation scattering, alloy scattering and interface roughness scattering, lattice vibrations, phonon scattering, polariton and plasmons.
6. Optical properties of semiconductors: Maxwell’s equations and vector potential, interband transitions, indirect interband transitions, charge injection, radiative recombination, non-radiative recombination, and LEDs. The materials will include Group IV, III-V (GaAs, GaN based materials), and II-VI (ZnO, ZnS)
7. Excitonic effects: Excitonic states in semiconductors, optical properties with inclusion of excitonic effects, excitonic states in quantum well, excitonic absorption, and excitonic broadening.
8. Modulations of optical properties: Modulation of optical properties, Electro-optic effect, and quantum confined stark effect.
 

課程目標
In the class, we will focus on the basic physics of optoelectronic devices. We will also introduce the solution to approach the problem by either analytical/ numerical methods. Several numerical methods and programs such as k.p method, quantum well problem, and Monte Carlo program will be provided as examples and practiced in this class.
