This NATO Advanced Research Workshop on `Phonons in Semiconductor Nanostructures' recounts the latest developments in the physics of phonons and their impact on the electronic properties of low dimensional structures. Leading experts in the field discuss recent problems on phonon confinement and assess the increasing importance of phonon effects on the optical and transport properties of one and zero-dimensional structures. The Proceedings address various issues related to phonon physics in III—V, II—VI and IV semiconductor nanostructures. The following topics are covered: models for confined phonons, latest experiments on confined phonons and electron-phonon interaction in two-dimensional systems, elementary excitations, phonons and optical processes in nanostructures, phonon limited transport phenomena, hot electron effects in quantum wires, carrier relaxation and phonon bottleneck in quantum dots. The book is intended for scientists, physicists, research engineers and graduate students interested in the latest developments in physics and engineering of quantum structures. (ABSTRACT) This NATO Advanced Research Workshop on `Phonons in Semiconductor Nanostructures' recounts the latest developments in the physics of phonons and their impact on the electronic properties of low dimensional structures. Leading experts in the field discuss recent problems on phonon confinement and assess the increasing importance of phonon effects on the optical and transport properties of one and zero-dimensional structures. Booknews Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop, held in St. Feliu de Guixols, Spain in September 1992 to provide a forum for discussion on the latest developments in the physics of phonons and their impact on the electronic properties of low-dimensional structures. The volume is divided into six parts: phonon models in nanostructures, phonons in 2D systems, electron-phonon interaction in 2D systems, elementary excitations in nanostructures, optical properties of nanostructures, and carrier relaxation and transport in 1D and 0D systems.
