Application of electromagnetics formalism to quantum-mechanical electron-wave propagation in semiconductors

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The formalism of electromagnetics can be applied to describe collisionless (ballistic) propagation, reflection, refraction, interference, and diffraction of electron waves in semiconductor crystals. This technique is complementary to applying the formalism of quantum-mechanical solid-state electronics to electromagnetic propagation in periodic dielectric structures as is done in photonic band structure research.
