Acknowledgements

We have written this book during an extended period from 2006-2011. Most of this work has been done at the Philipps-University Marburg - we truly appreciate the research-oriented infrastructure provided here. We also thank the members of our department for the inspirational research and teaching interactions we have had during our efforts to reveal and explain new semiconductor quantum phenomena. Check out our institute Department of physics, Univ. Marburg!
