Author Description

The contributions in this volume focus on the physics, characterization and processing of solid state devices. Thirty invited papers and well over a hundred contributed papers are presented. They discuss recent developments and future trends in silicon IC technology, compound semiconductor technology, solid state devices, sensors, actuators and displays, modelling, characterization and packaging. The quality of the contributions reflect without any doubt that ESSDERC is the most important European forum for research and development of semiconductor devices and technology. The volume will be of interest to all those wishing to enhance their knowledge in this rapidly developing field.
