About this ebook

This book focuses on novel bismuth-containing alloys and nanostructures, covering a wide range of materials from semiconductors, topological insulators, silica optical fibers and to multiferroic materials. It provides a timely overview of bismuth alloys and nanostructures, from material synthesis and physical properties to device applications and also includes the latest research findings. Bismuth is considered to be a sustainable and environmentally friendly element, and has received increasing attention in a variety of innovative research areas in recent years. The book is intended as a reference resource and textbook for graduate students and researchers working in these fields.


About the author

Shumin Wang received BSc and MSc degrees in Physics from Fudan University, China, in 1985 and 1988, respectively, and his PhD in Semiconductor Physics from Gothenburg University, Sweden, in 1994. He has since been working at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, and was promoted to Associate Professor and Professor in 1999 and 2008, respectively. In 2013, he was appointed as “1000-talent program” Professor at Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China. Professor Wang is an expert on epitaxial growth, and physics and device applications of low-dimensional semiconductor heterostructures and nanostructures. He has edited one book entitled Lattice Engineering, Technologies and Applications, written 6 book chapters, published over 450 refereed international journal and conference papers and holds 14 Chinese patents. He served as a committee member for numerous international conferences, including the 14th and 18-20thInternational MBE Conference, and the European MBE Workshop since 2011. He was the Chair for the 7th International Workshop on Bismuth-Containing Compounds in 2016 and Co-chair for the IEEE Summer Topic Meeting in 2017. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE Society.

Pengfei Lu received the BSc and DSc degree in physics from Sichuan University, P.R.China, in 1998 and 2003, respectively. Now he is with Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT) as a professor. He published over 100 refereed international journal and conference papers. Presently he is working on theoretical study of optical materials; 2D materials and typical III-V laser materials.
