AoN technical library

Three volumes, from electrical foundations to nanoelectronics.

Choose a volume first. Each volume opens a real table of contents: foundations and notation, circuit dynamics and electronic systems, then semiconductor and nanoscale physics.

I
Volume I

Electrical foundations, circuit analysis, signals & measurement

Start from charge, voltage, current, Ohm and Kirchhoff before moving to network theorems, signals and instruments.

This volume starts at true introductory level. It builds electrical quantities and sign conventions first, then resistive DC networks, Kirchhoff's current law and Kirchhoff's voltage law, nodal and mesh analysis, sources and superposition. Thévenin/Norton only appears after that foundation, followed by measurement, signals, phasors, AC response and oscilloscope practice.

II
Volume II

Circuit dynamics, analog electronics, electromagnetics & RF

From RC/RLC and transistor circuits to E/B fields, Maxwell, waves, transmission lines, waveguides and S-parameters.

This volume first treats energy-storage dynamics and analog circuits, then builds the RF/microwave bridge from field physics rather than from isolated formulas: electrostatics, magnetostatics, Maxwell equations, electromagnetic waves, distributed circuits, waveguides, two-port descriptions, S-parameters and measurement.

Open volume
III
Volume III

Semiconductor physics, quantum devices & nanoelectronics

From crystal bands and device electrostatics to quantum confinement, material response, plasmons and THz nanoelectronics.

This volume reuses the circuit and electromagnetic foundations to derive nanoscale behaviour from solid-state, semiconductor, quantum and many-body physics. It explicitly reconnects Maxwell/material response to conductivity, permittivity, Drude/Lorentz models, dielectric response, RPA, plasmons and THz devices.

Open volume

The library describes a progression, not a compulsory path. Open any volume, inspect its table of contents, then enter only the courses whose prerequisites you already have.
