Research on color matching of LED backlight for large-color-gamut LCD application - art. no. 68410Y

Comparing with the conventional CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) backlight, three-basic-color LEDs backlight has some advantages such as good color reproduction, long life and lead free etc. Theoretically, the color gamut is determined by x, y coordinates of the three basic colors in CIE chromaticity diagram, and the x, y coordinates of each basic color can derived from the relative spectrum distribution (RSD) of the LED. In this paper, the red, green and blue LEDs' RSD models are established to calculate and analyze the color gamut of a backlight. By simulating those models, the relationships that the color gamut of a LED backlight varies with each color are analyzed, and the optimum combination of three colors is obtained within the given wavelengths ranges. Moreover, the combinations of three colors for the gamut of 115% NTSC and 110% NTSC are plotted in pictures, respectively.

Blue Luminescent Properties of Silicon Nanowires Grown by a Solid-Liquid-Solid Method

Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) were grown directly from n-(111) single-crystal silicon (c-Si) substrate based on a solid-liquid-solid mechanism, and Au film was used as a metallic catalyst. The room temperature photoluminescence properties of SiNWs were observed by an Xe lamp with an exciting wavelength of 350 nm. The results show that the SiNWs exhibit a strongly blue luminescent band in the wavelength range 400-480 nm at an emission peak position of 420 nm. The luminescent mechanism of SiNWs indicates that the blue luminescence is attributed to the oxygen-related defects, which are in SiOx amorphous oxide shells around the crystalline core of SiNWs.

Vacuum pyrolysis of waste tires with basic additives

Granules of waste tires were pyrolyzed tinder vacuum (3.5-10 kPa) conditions, and the effects of temperature and basic additives (Na2CO3, NaOH) on the properties of pyrolysis were thoroughly investigated. It was obvious that with or without basic additives, pyrolysis oil yield increased gradually to a maximum and subsequently decreased with a temperature increase from 450 degrees C to 600 degrees C, irrespective of the addition of basic additives to the reactor. The addition of NaOH facilitated pyrolysis dramatically, as a maximal pyrolysis oil yield of about 48 wt% was achieved at 550 degrees C without the addition of basic additives, while a maximal pyrolysis oil yield of about 50 wt% was achieved at 480 degrees C by adding 3 wt% (w/w, powder/waste tire granules) of NaOH powder. The composition analysis of pyrolytic naphtha (i.b.p. (initial boiling point) similar to 205 degrees C) distilled from pyrolysis oil showed that more dl-limonene was obtained with basic additives and the maximal content of dl-limonene in pyrolysis oil was 12.39 wt% which is a valuable and widely-used fine chemical. However, no improvement in pyrolysis was observed with Na2CO3 addition. Pyrolysis gas was mainly composed of H-2, CO, CH4, CO2, C2H4 and C2H6. Pyrolytic char had a surface area comparable to commercial carbon black, but its proportion of ash (above 11.5 wt%) was much higher.

Generation of the high efficiency high peak-power femtosecond blue optical pulse

The analysis and calculation of the compensation for the phase mismatch of the frequency-doubling using the frequency space chirp introduced from prisms are made. The result shows that suitable lens can compensate the phase mismatch in a certain extent resulting from wide femtosecond spectrum when the spectrum is space chirped. By means of this method, the experiment of second harmonic generation is carried out using a home-made femtosecond KLM Ti:sapphire laser and BBO crystal. The conversion efficiency of SHG is 63 %. The average output power of blue light is 320 mW. The central wavelength is 420 nm. The spectrum bandwidth is 5.5 nm. It can sustain the pulse width of 33.6 fs. The tuning range of blue light is 404-420 nm,when the femtosecond Ti:sapphire optical pulse is tuned using the prisms in the cavity.

两个冠醚分子在简正坐标分析及NRCC程序在微机上的移植

本文用加拿大国立研究院(National Research Council of Canada) Fuhrer等人编制的FORTRAN语言程序（以下简称NRCC程序），对两个冠醚类化合物进行了简正坐标分析，这两个化合物分子是二氧六环(C_4H_8O_2)和12－冠－4(C_8H_(16)O_4)。作者用Synder和Zerbi提出的一般价力场，计算了二氧六环的36个简正振动频率，精化四次后的结果误差为14.04 cm~(-1)，得到了二氧六环的精化力场和势能分析矩阵；做了12－冠－4－的中红外光谱(3200-5000cm~(-1))。远红外光谱(500-70cm~(-1))和拉曼光谱(3200-50 cm~(-1)，从而归属出12－冠－4的78个简正振动频率实验值；利用二氧六环的精化力场作为初始力场，计算了12－冠－4的简正振动频率，对78个简正振动频率进行了精化计算，精化三次后的结果误差为13.99 cm~(-1)，精化后得到12－冠－4的精化力场和势能分布矩阵；将NRCC程序以BASIC语言移至TRS-80微型机上，对二氧六环进行了计算，结果良好，首次给出二氧六环一般价力场的势能分布。一、对二氧六环的处理 二氧六环分子式C_4H_8O_2，合14个原子，有3N－6＝36个简正振动频率。分子结构系由二个乙氧基(-CH_2-CH_2-O-)单元组成的含有四个碳，两个氧的六元环，平衡态分子为椅式构象，属于C_(2h)点群，36个简正振动频率分为四个对称类Ag、Au、Bg和Bu，分布是：Ag 10个，Bg 8个，Au 9个，Bu9个。二氧六环的分子结构及坐标示意图见28而图5，定义了14个伸缩内坐标，26个弯曲内坐标，6个扭曲内坐标，共46个，C－C键长1.54A，C-O键长1.41 A，C－H键长1.096A，键角都用109°28'。用CART程序（NRCC程序之一）计算二氧六环14个原子的笛卡尔坐标，用GMAT程序（NRCC程序之二）计算其B矩阵和G矩阵，用FPERT程序（NRCC程序之三）计算其简正振动频率、精化力场，计算用一般价力场，引入V矩阵对称化，将46个坐标化为46个（内）对称坐标，10个多余坐标在FPERT程序计算中除去。二、对12－冠－4的处理 12－冠－4分子式C_8H_(16)O_4，含28个原子，共3N－6＝78个简正振动频率，分子结构为四个乙氧基(-CH_2-CH_2-O-)单元组成的含八个碳、四个氧的12元环，自由分子的12－冠－4属于C点群。结构数据引自Groth的X光衍射分数和坐标，自己编制了BASIC语言程度将分数坐标化为笛卡尔坐标，用GMAT程序计算B矩阵和G矩阵，FPERT程序计算78个简正振动频率、精化力场、计算势能分布矩阵，引入U矩阵将92个内坐标化为92个对称坐标，14个多余坐标在FPERT程序中自动除去。三、结果 势能分布矩阵给出分子的振动归属，对这两个冠醚类分子的3N－6个简正振动频率，可以划分为五个振动区域。1．C－H伸缩振动区（3000－2800 cm~(-1)） 在该区中，二氧六环有八个值：2974、2966、2854和2867 cm~(-1)各两个，12－冠－4有16个值：2935、2923、2915和2907 cm~(-1)各两个，2860 cm~(-1)8个，高于2900 cm~(-1)者为反对称伸缩振动，低于2900 cm~(-1)者为对称伸缩振动。2．亚甲基弯曲振动之一(1500-1400 cm~(-1)) 该区的主要振动是亚甲基剪式振动(Scissor)，其它振动小于10％二氧六环在该区有四个频率：1443、1461、1451和1457 cm~(-1)，12－冠－4有八个频率：1466、1450、1450和1405 cm~(-1)各两个。3．亚甲基弯曲振动区二(1400-1200 cm~(-1))该区的主要振动模式为亚甲基的颤动(wag)、卷曲(twist)和摆动(rock)振动，其它振动小于13％。二氧六环在该区有八个频率：1334、1303、1396、1216、1367、1264、1377和1296 cm~(-1)，12－冠－4有十六个频率：1388、1363、……1229 cm~(-1)（其中1288、1307cm~(-1)非简并，其余皆两重简并）。4．环的骨架伸缩振动区(1200-600 cm~(-1))该区振动模式复杂，除环的骨架伸缩振动外，还有亚甲基的wag、twist、rock以及环的骨架弯曲振动，而且这些振动的势能分布值都不小。二氧六环在该区有十一个频率，从1127至610 cm~(-1)，12－冠－4有二十个频率，从1135至184 cm~(-1)且大都是二重简并的。5．低频区(600-50cm~(-1))这两个分子在低频区的势能分布略有差别。二氧六环在该区有五个频率：503、486、427、276和224 cm~(-1)，主要振动模式为骨架弯曲振动和扭曲振动，C－O、C－C的扭曲振动在三个最低频率中分布占10－30％。12－冠－4在该区有18个频率，除570和547cm~(-1)处，都是二重简并的，六个最低频率的振动模式完全属于C－O、C－C键的扭曲振动，其它振动小于10％，所以200 cm~(-1)以下可称为12－冠－4的扭曲振动区，在600－200cm~(-1)之间的12个频率主要是骨架的弯曲振动，也有一定量的亚甲基wag、twist、rock振动。12－冠－4的简正坐标分析尚未有人做过。二氧六环的计算结果与Snyder和Zerbi的分析相吻合，12－冠－4和二氧六环两分子势能分布的相对一致性证明了对12－冠－4的简正坐标分析基本是正确的。本文比较了二分子的力常数和振动频率，探讨了环的大小对振动光谱的影响。四、NRCC程序简介 NRCC程序由CART、GMAT和FPERT三个程序组成，即可联一起运用，亦可分开独立进行运算。该程序功能强，所占内存大，适于大、中型计算机使用。CART程序之名字取自Cartisian Co-or-dinates的前四个字母，功能系由分子结构参数（键长、键角）计算分子内各原子的笛卡尔坐标。GMAT程序之名字取自G matrix的前四个字母，功能系由分子内各原子的笛卡尔坐标，原子质量和内坐标定义计算分子内各原子的坐标交换矩阵B和Wilson振动动能矩阵G。FPERT程序之名字取自F Perturbation的前五个字母，功能系由分子振动功能矩阵G、势能常数即力常数矩阵F计算分子的简正振动频率和势能分布矩阵，再通过实验频率精化势能矩阵F。NRCC程序可对含30个原子、60个内坐标的分子进行简正坐标分析，扩充后容量增大一倍。该程序可选用一般价力场(General Valence Force Field, 简称GVFF)和UBS力场(Urey-Bradley-Shimanouchi Force Field)，简称UBSFF或UBFF)。可选用对称化U矩阵，可自行决定力场精化次数和阻尼常数以限制精化结果的收敛性。五、NRCC程序在TRS－80微型机上移植试尝（该部分曾在第三届长春夏季化学讨论会上宣读）针对NRCC程序占内存空间大、难以在微型机上实现的情况，作者将NRCC程序改编为BASIC语言，改变程序的原来结构，形成一组BASIC语言程序：CART／BAS、GMAT／BAS和VIFR／BAS，改编后的BASIC程序在TRS－80微型机调试通过，TRS－80机字长8位，New Dos系统内存32K。改写后的程序只保持了原程序的基本原理，在内存，语句上改动很大，以适于微型机使用。数据在程序中直接嵌入，利于修改替换，且BASIC语言简单易学，便于操作。CART／BAS程序可计算含30个原子以内的分子的笛卡尔坐标，GMAT／BAS程序可计算含20个原子、45个内坐标的分子的G矩阵，VIFR／BAS程序可计算含15个原子的分子的简正振动频率。利用这组程序，作者以二氧六环分子为例做了一些试尝运算，误差14.4 cm~(-1)，相对误差1.8%，结果较理想。

Type I-type II transition of self-assembled In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As quantum dots

The photoluminescence (PL) of In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As self-assembled quantum dots has been measured at 15 and 80 K under hydrostatic pressure. The lateral size of the dots ranges from 7 to 62 nm. The emissions from the dots with 26, 52 and 62 nm size have a blue shift under pressure, indicating that these quantum dots have the normal type-I structure with lowest conduction band at the Gamma -valley. However, the PL peak of dots with 7 nm diameter moves to lower energy with increasing pressure. It is a typical character for the X-related transition. Then these small dots have a type-II structure with the X-valley as the lowest conduction level. An envelope-function calculation confirms that the Gamma -like exciton transition energy will rise above the X-like transition energy in the In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As structure if the dot size is small enough.

Intersubband absorption energy shifts in 3-level system for asymmetric quantum well terahertz emitters

Intersubband absorption energy shifts in 3-level system stemming from depolarization and excitonlike effects are investigated. Analytically, the expressions we derive present good explanations to the conventional 2-level results and bare potential transition energy results; and numerical results show that they are more exact than the previous studies to describe the 3-level system depolarization and excitonlike shift (DES) character especially for higher carrier density (more than 8 x 10(11) cm(-2)). One interesting detail we find is that the "large blue" DES becomes "slight redshift" in the low doping limit (less than 1.9 x 10(11) cm(-2)), which may be neglected by the previous studies of intersubband transitions. Temperature character of DES in the step well structure is also numerically studied. Finally the above are applied to calculate asymmetric step quantum well structures. The two main functional aspects of terahertz (THz) emitters are discussed and several basic optimizing conditions are considered. By adjusting the well geometry parameters and material composition systematically, some optimized structures which satisfy all of the six conditions are recommended in tables. These optimizations may provide useful references to the design of 3-level-based optically pumping THz emitters.
