FRANK SCHWIERZ, PhD, is head of the RF & Nanoelectronics Research Group at Technische Universität (TU) Ilmenau, Germany.
JUIN J. LIOU, PhD, is a professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Science at the University of Central Florida.
Microwave transistors are assuming greater importance in consumer communications technology. Schwierz (RF & Nanoelectronics Research Group, Technische Universität Ilmenau, Germany) and Liou (electrical and computer science, U. of Central Florida, US) provide an introduction to the technology that covers physics, operations, design, and performance issues. They discuss different transistor structures, analysis of transistor behavior, and design guidelines. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
