Riassunto

Intended for students of computer science and electrical engineering, this text is directed toward teaching the fundamental physics of how a computer works, while at the same time providing a broad and effective one-year introduction to classical and modern physics. The presentation includes many of the topics of a standard introductory physics course as well as the fundamentals of quantum mechanics, multi -electron systems, crystal structure, semiconductor devices, and logic circuits.
