The Physics of Modern
Electronics by
W.A. Gunther, translated from the German by David Antin
About this book
: |
 |
|
This introduction covers the
physical basis of general electronics, answering such |
|
questions as how electronics can
be influenced and how electronics is related to static
|
|
electricity and describing
conductors, semiconductors, and insulators; induction |
|
phenomena; and magnetism. There
follow chapters on older types of devices : |
|
intensity-modulated tubes, gas
diodes, cathode-ray and other high vacuum tubes, and |
|
velocity-modulated tubes. Finally,
nearly half the text is devoted to an excellent |
|
physical exposition of the use of
electronics in transistors and molecular amplifiers. |
|
Scientists in all fields using
electronic devices and students of electrical engineering and |
|
of electronics in particular will
find, as has the German-speaking scientific community, |
|
that Dr Gunther's text is a
valuable addition to the available material in this area. Readers |
|
with little mathematical training
will be able to follow the text easily, for the author has
|
|
dispensed with precise
mathematical tools and derivations. It will be especially valuable, |
|
however, to students, technicians,
and others interested in entering the electronics field. |
