A New Edge-Coupled Two-Terminal Double Heterojunction Phototransistor (ECTT-DHPT) and Its DC Characteristics

A new ECTT-DHPT with InGaAsP(lambda=1.55 mu m) as base and InGaAsP(lambda=1.3 mu m) as collector as well as waveguide was designed and fabricated, the DC characteristics reveal that the ECTT-DRPT can perform good optoelectronic mix operation and linear amplification operation by optically biased at two appropriate value respectively. Responsivity of more than 52A/W and dark current of 70nA (when V-ce=1V) were obtained.

A New Technique for Side Pumping of Double-Clad Fiber Lasers

We report a new technique, called SAP, for side pumping of double-clad, rare-earth-doped fiber lasers using fiber-coupled pump sources. The highest coupling efficiency can even exceed 92% in theory with this structure.

A Novel Architecture of Vision Chip for Fast Traffic Lane Detection and FPGA Implementation

This paper presents a novel architecture of vision chip for fast traffic lane detection (FTLD). The architecture consists of a 32*32 SIMD processing element (PE) array processor and a dual-core RISC processor. The PE array processor performs low-level pixel-parallel image processing at high speed and outputs image features for high-level image processing without I/O bottleneck. The dual-core processor carries out high-level image processing. A parallel fast lane detection algorithm for this architecture is developed. The FPGA system with a CMOS image sensor is used to implement the architecture. Experiment results show that the system can perform the fast traffic lane detection at 50fps rate. It is much faster than previous works and has good robustness that can operate in various intensity of light. The novel architecture of vision chip is able to meet the demand of real-time lane departure warning system.

function definition language fdl and its implementation

A Function Definition Language (FDL) is presented. Though designed for describing specifications, FDL is also a general-purpose functional programming language. It uses context-free language as data type, supports pattern matching definition of functions, offers several function definition forms, and is executable. It is shown that FDL has strong expressiveness, is easy to use and describes algorithms concisely and naturally. An interpreter of FDL is introduced. Experiments and discussion are included.
