High-power quantum-dot superluminescent LED with broadband drive current insensitive emission spectra using a tapered active region

High-power and broadband quantum-dot (QD) superluminescent light-emitting diodes are realized by using a combination of self-assembled QDs with a high density, large inhomogeneous broadening, a tapered angled pump region, and etched V groove structure. This broad-area device exhibits greater than 70-nm 3-dB bandwidth and drive current insensitive emission spectra with 100-mW output power under continuous-wave operation. For pulsed operation, greater than 200-mW output power is obtained.

Microorganisms linked to Neoproterozoic microspar carbonate sedimentation in the Jilin-Liaoning area

Molar-tooth carbonate refers to a sort of rock that has ptygmatical folded structure comparable to the ivory. This kind of carbonate exists in a special time range (from Middle to Neoproterozoic). Its origin and the possibility to use it in stratigraphic correlation of the paleocontinent is the key task of the IGCP447, a project on Proterozoic molar tooth carbonates and the evolution of the earth (2001-2005). The importance lies in that the molar-tooth structure is the key to solving problems related to Precambrian biological and global geochemical events. The molar-tooth structure is associated with microorganisms. Development and recession of such carbonates have relations with the evolution process of early lives and abrupt changes in sea carbonate geochemistry. In recent years, based on researches on petrology, geochemistry and Sr isotope of molar-tooth carbonate in the Jilin-Liaoning and Xuzhou-Huaiyang area, the authors hold that it can be used as a marker for stratigraphic sequence and sedimentary facies analyses.

Information geometry theory of high-dimension space and application for speaker independent continuous digit speech recognition

In the light of descriptive geometry and notions in set theory, this paper re-defines the basic elements in space such as curve and surface and so on, presents some fundamental notions with respect to the point cover based on the High-dimension space (HDS) point covering theory, finally takes points from mapping part of speech signals to HDS, so as to analyze distribution information of these speech points in HDS, and various geometric covering objects for speech points and their relationship. Besides, this paper also proposes a new algorithm for speaker independent continuous digit speech recognition based on the HDS point dynamic searching theory without end-points detection and segmentation. First from the different digit syllables in real continuous digit speech, we establish the covering area in feature space for continuous speech. During recognition, we make use of the point covering dynamic searching theory in HDS to do recognition, and then get the satisfying recognized results. At last, compared to HMM (Hidden Markov models)-based method, from the development trend of the comparing results, as sample amount increasing, the difference of recognition rate between two methods will decrease slowly, while sample amount approaching to be very large, two recognition rates all close to 100% little by little. As seen from the results, the recognition rate of HDS point covering method is higher than that of in HMM (Hidden Markov models) based method, because, the point covering describes the morphological distribution for speech in HDS, whereas HMM-based method is only a probability distribution, whose accuracy is certainly inferior to point covering.

Growth and characterization of 0.8-mu m gate length AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on sapphire substrates

AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) structures were grown on 2 inch sapphire substrates by MOCVD, and 0.8-mu m gate length devices were fabricated and measured. It is shown by resistance mapping that the HEMT structures have an average sheet resistance of approximately 380 Omega/sq with a uniformity of more than 96%. The 1-mm gate width devices using the materials yielded a pulsed drain current of 784 mA/mm at V-gs=0.5 V and V-ds=7 V with an extrinsic transconductance of 200 mS/mm. A 20-GHz unity current gain cutoff frequency (f(T)) and a 28-GHz maximum oscillation frequency (f(max)) were obtained. The device with a 0.6-mm gate width yielded a total output power of 2.0 W/mm (power density of 3.33 W/mm) with 41% power added efficiency (PAE) at 4 GHz.

Enhanced fiber Bragg grating sensor demodulation technique using cascade wavelength division multiplex couplers

An enhanced technique for interrogating fiber Bragg grating wavelength shift using cascade wavelength division multiplexer (WDM) couplers was proposed and demonstrated. Three WDM couplers which show a linear filter function over the expected wavelength range are employed and cascaded to track Bragg wavelength shifts. Compared with single WDM demodulator. sharper spectral slope is obtained and considerable linear filter range is kept. The static and dynamic strain sensor demodulation experiments demonstrated that the simple passive technique improves the sensitivity approximately two times and keeps 5nm linear demodulation range based on our devices. The cascade WDM coupler demodulation system has high scan rate which can be used to monitor fast vibration.

基于一阶迁移系统的限界模型检测工具实现

基于布尔可满足性(SAT)的限界模型检测是一种高效的模型检测方法，它具有快速查错，反例最小化等特点，已经成为学术界和工业界关注的热点。近些年出现了很多集成限界模型检测算法的验证工具，如ITC-IRST、卡内基梅隆大学(CMU)等多家科研机构联合开发的NuSMV工具；加利福尼亚大学伯克莱分校(UC Berkeley)、科罗拉多大学博尔德分校(CU Boulder)联合开发的VIS工具等。因此目前对于限界模型检测方法的研究和相关工具的设计与开发具有重要而广泛的意义。在进行限界模型检测的建模过程中，不同的工具采用了自定义的建模语言。如经典工具SPIN采用的建模语言是Promela语言，NuSMV采用的是自定义的NuSMV语言。随着系统验证规模的不断增大，建模语言的特点将会直接影响到建模的效率。例如采用NuSMV语言去建立一个网络通信协议模型会显得比较复杂和耗时，应用NuSMV语言去描述一个简单的数据链路层网络协议ABP协议(Alternating Bit Protocol)就不如采用Promela语言去描述显得直观和自然。 为了简化在限界模型检测过程中模型的建立过程，本文给出了一种采用基于一阶迁移系统语言描述的模型建立方法，并在一阶迁移系统语言中实现了通道的功能，从而增强了描述能力。在此基础上完成了一个以基于插值和k步归纳限界验证算法为核心的模型检测工具(BMCF)。最后利用该工具对常见的互斥协议，简单数据传输协议的性质进行了分析与验证。结果表明，利用该工具对系统进行建模具有方便直观的特点，并借助实现的验证算法能高效的检验安全性质的正确性，如果性质不成立工具会给出反例提示。
