Size evolution and optical properties of self-assembled InAs quantum dots on different matrix

InAs quantum dots have been grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy on different matrix to investigate the effect on the structure and optical properties. High density of 1.02 x 10(11) cm(-2) of InAs islands on In0.15Ga0.85As and In0.15Al0.85As underlying layer has been achieved. Atomic force microscopy and photoluminescence spectra show the size evolution of InAs islands on In0.15Ga0.85As underlying layer. A strong 1.3 mum photoluminescence from InAs islands on In0.15Ga0.85As underlying layer and with InGaAs strain-reduced layer has been obtained. Single-mirror light emitting diode structures with InAs quantum dots capped by InGaAs grown on InGaAs layer as active layer were fabricated and the corresponding radiative efficiency was deduced to be as high as 20.5%. Our results provide important information for optimizing the epitaxial structures of 1.3 mum wavelength quantum dots devices. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Hydrogen sensors based on Pt-AlGaN/GaN back-to-back Schottky diode

In this paper, platinum (Pt) with a thickness of 45 nm was sputtered on the surface of AlGaN/GaN heterostructure to form the Schottky contact and the back-to-back Schottky diodes were characterized for H-2 sensing at room temperature. Both the forward and reverse current of the devices increased with exposure to H-2 gas, which was attributed to Schottky barrier height reduction caused by hydrogen absorption in the catalytic metals. A shift of 0.7 V at 297 K was obtained at a fixed forward current of 0.1 mA after switching from N-2 to 40% H-2 in N-2. The sensor's responses under different concentrations from 2500 ppm H-2 to 40% H-2 in N-2 at 297 K were investigated. Time response of the sensor at a fixed bias of 1 V was given. Finally, the decrease of the Schottky barrier height and the sensitivity of the sensor were calculated. (C) 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

pessimistic predicate/transform model for long running business processes

Many business processes in enterprise applications are both long running and transactional in nature. However, no current transaction model can provide full transaction support for such long running business processes. This paper proposes a new transaction model, the pessimistic predicate/transform (PP/T) model, which can provide full transaction support for long running business processes. A framework was proposed on the enterprise JavaBeans platform to implement the PP/T model. The framework enables application developers to focus on the business logic, with the underlying platform providing the required transactional semantics. The development and maintenance effort are therefore greatly reduced. Simulations show that the model has a sound concurrency management ability for long running business processes.

黄土丘陵区长芒草群落对土壤水分入渗的影响

以黄土丘陵区长芒草群落为研究对象,采用圆盘入渗仪对不同盖度长芒草群落下的土壤入渗过程进行了对比研究。结果表明,在0-80 cm土壤剖面上,不同盖度的长芒草群落下土壤初始入渗速率和稳定入渗速率都随着土壤深度增加而下降。在同一深度的土壤剖面上,群落盖度越大土壤初始入渗速率和稳定入渗速率也分别越高。影响土壤初始入渗速率的主要因素是土壤有效孔隙度、初始含水量和水稳性团聚体含量。影响土壤稳定入渗速率的主要因素是土壤有效孔隙度、根长密度和水稳性团体含量,但水稳性团聚体对表层土壤初始入渗速率和稳定入渗速率的影响不显著。长芒草群落不仅通过根系对土壤的物理机械作用以及根系周转过程中形成的生物性大孔提高了土壤入渗速率,还通过提高土壤有机质和水稳性团聚体含量提高了土壤入渗速率。
