出版背景
納米技術的發展催生了只有幾個分子厚度的半導體結構，這給該結構中電子和聲子的物理帶來了重要影響。本書闡述了量子阱和量子線中的電子和聲子囚禁對半導體特性的影響。第二版中加入了電子自旋弛豫、六角纖鋅晶格、氮化物結構和太赫茲源等方面的內容。本書獨特之處在於對光學聲子的微觀理論的闡述，其由囚禁引起的徑向性質改變以及與電子的相互作用等。 本書適合半導體物理領域的研究者和研究生閱讀。
精彩片段
本書是影印版英文專著，原書由劍橋大學出版社於2009年出版。半導體科學與技術是當代最重要的研究領域。因之催生的各種套用數不勝數。半導體多層膜則是納米技術發展的產物，具有重要的科研價值和巨大的套用潛力。本書作為研究其中電子和聲子的學術專著，一定會給這一領域的研究者以很大的收穫。
