EEC 760 - Nanoscale Solid State Electronics

(4 credits)
Prerequisite(s): EEC 514 or undergraduate course in solid state electronics. The objective of this course is to provide the students with an in-depth understanding of the principles of modern solid state electronic devices.  Emphasis is on nanoscale devices and devices made of nanoscale materials.  The course begins witha brief review of quantum theory of solids, properties of solid nanostructures, and fundamental principles of conventional electronic devices.  In-depth discussion on specific nanoscale devices allows sutdents to gain knowledge in the operational principles of state-of-the-art technology in electronic devices, including hot electron transistors, high electron mobility transistors, resonant tunneling diodes, single electron transistors, and molecular devices.  This course is cross-listed with EEC 660.
