Since its inception in 1966, the series of numbered volumes known as Semiconductors and Semimetals has distinguished itself through the careful selection of well-known authors, editors, and contributors. The "Willardson and Beer" Series, as it is widely known, has succeeded in publishing numerous landmark volumes and chapters. Not only did many of these volumes make an impact at the time of their publication, but they continue to be well-cited years after their original release. Recently, Professor Eicke R. Weber of the University of California at Berkeley joined as a co-editor of the series. Professor Weber, a well-known expert in the field of semiconductor materials, will further contribute to continuing the series' tradition of publishing timely, highly relevant, and long-impacting volumes. Some of the recent volumes, such as Hydrogen in Semiconductors, Imperfections in III/V Materials, Epitaxial Microstructures, High-Speed Heterostructure Devices, Oxygen in Silicon, and others promise that this tradition will be maintained and even expanded. Reflecting the truly interdisciplinary nature of the field that the series covers, the volumes in Semiconductors and Semimetals have been and will continue to be of great interest to physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and device engineers in modern industry.
- Written and edited by internationally renowned experts
- Relevent to a wide readership: physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and device engineers in academia, scientific laboratories and modern industry.

"This book will be very useful to groups interested in using state of the art detection systems in the infrared and related regions. It is principally concerned with the use of focal plane arrays and the detection of images. These are described and illustrated very clearly, and will be very useful to scientists interested in infrared imaging. The treatment in this monograph gives much less emphasis to the use of fast, single element, detectors, which are still very useful for measuring real-time experiments such as those involving rapidly chirped infrared pulses." --Contemporary Physics
