Semiconductors and Semimetals

Vol 5 Infrared Detectors R K Willardson and A C Beer London: Academic Press 1970 pp xiv + 551 price £12.15 This book is in complete contrast to the previous four volumes of the series which were restricted to the physics of III-V compounds and will be the first of several to be devoted to the applications of semiconductors. Like the previous volumes it consists of a collection of articles each written by experts in their field and as such should be invaluable to both the users and makers of infrared detectors.
