Mesoscopic Electronics in Solid State Nanostructures - Book Review,
by Thomas Heinzel

Book Description This text treats electronic transport in the regime where conventional textbook models are no longer applicable, including the effect of electronic phase coherence, energy quantization and single-electron charging. The book also provides an overview of semiconductor processing technologies and experimental techniques. With a number of examples and problems with solutions, this is an ideal introduction for students and beginning researchers in the field. "This book is a useful tool also for the experienced researcher to get a summary about recent developments in solid state nanostructures. I applaud the author for a marvelous contribution to the scientific community of mesoscopic electronics." Prof. K. Ensslin, Solid State Physics Laboratory, ETH Zurich
From the Back Cover This text treats electronic transport in the regime where conventional textbook models are no longer applicable, including the effect of electronic phase coherence, energy quantization, electron-electron interactions, and spin in the mesoscopic regime. The book also provides an overview of semiconductor processing technologies and actual experimental techniques. With a number of examples and problems with solutions, this is an ideal introduction for students and beginning researchers in the field.
About the Author Thomas Heinzel received his PhD in 1994 from the University of Munich. Afterwards, he joined the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, for two years. He worked at the ETH Zurich for five years, where he wrote his habilitation. Since 2001, he is a professor of experimental physics at the University of Freiburg in Germany. His current research interests are electrons in nanostructured as well as in self-organized materials.
