With the aid of a detailed procedure developed for analyzing the spectra, we obtained the effects of temperature on the optical properties of AlInN, such as the absorption coefficient, bandgap, Urbach bandtail characteristics, and refractive index. The absorption coefficient of the complete Urbach and intrinsic absorption regions of InN thin films has been described by a series of empirical formulas. The refractive index dispersion of AlN thin films below the band gap can be described by the Sellmeier equation. A bandtail model based on the calculation of density of occupied states and the carrier–phonon interaction has been employed to analyze the bandtail characteristics of AlInN thin films. We have also investigated Raman spectroscopy of AlInN thin films, with the emphasis on temperature dependence of phonon frequencies, which can be described well by a model taking into account the contributions of the thermal expansion of the crystal lattice, the strain between AlInN thin films and sapphire substrates, as well as threeand fourphonon coupling. These optical properties provide an experimental basis for further theoretical investigation and the design of AlInNbased devices..

WEI XianQi, WANG YongJie, and ZHANG Zhong
Zinc oxide thin films fabricated on si (111) and sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) were annealed at different temperatures and in different ambient, respectively. The effects of annealing temperature and annealing ambient on structural and optical properties of ZnO thin films have been characterized Zinc oxide thin films fabricated on si (111) and sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) were annealed at different temperatures and in different ambient, respectively. The effects of annealing temperature and annealing ambient on structural and optical properties of ZnO thin films have been characterized by Xray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The experimental results show that with the increase of annealing temperature the compressive stress of ZnO thin films is decreased and shifted towards strain stress. PL spectra of ZnO thin films annealed at different temperature indicate that the UV emission is increasing with increasing annealing temperature, and the visible emission is decreasing. The results annealed at various conditions show that the thin film annealed on sapphire substrate at 700℃ in oxygen ambient possesses a small strain stress and the highest ratio of UV emission to visible emission..

A batch of BaF2:PbWO4 crystals are grown up by a multicrucible temperature gradient system. The transmittance and xray exciting luminescence (XEL) spectra of these crystals were studied.

Proper BaA batch of BaF2:PbWO4 crystals are grown up by a multicrucible temperature gradient system. The transmittance and xray exciting luminescence (XEL) spectra of these crystals were studied. The results reveal that these scintillation properties are strikingly effected by the doped BaF2 content in the crystals. Proper BaF2 content in the crystal could improve the transmittance and the XEL peak intensity and make the XEL peaks shift to longer wavelength. For the crystal grown up from the melt with BaF2 1000molppm, this raising extent becomes evident for their transmittance and the XEL peak intensity. For the crystal grown up from the melt with BaF2 2500~3000molppm, their transmittance and XEL peak intensity raise greatly. For the crystal grown up from BaF2 3500molppm, there is no evidence change for the transmittance, but its blue XEL peak intensity becomes weak and the peak width enlarged. For the crystal grown up from the melt with BaF2 5000molppm, the blue peak intensity becomes low while the green peak intensity becomes strong. The enhancingeffect of V3+Pb and VO- and ［WO3F］- tetrahedron and the weakeningeffect of O·i ,Ba¨i and ［WO2F2］ tetrahedron are related to the phenomena..

In order to apply it to largescale classification When the number of labeled samples is limited, Laplacian SVM needs as many as possible unlabeled samples to improve the performance of classification. However, when the number of unlabeled samples is large, the required time and space complexity would be unacceptable. In order to apply it to largescale classification problems like SAR image segmentation, a new method for SAR image segmentation named as improved Laplacian support vector machine algorithm (Improved Laplacian SVM) was proposed. Watershed algorithm was first used to decompose the original image into several small prototype blocks, and image features of each small prototype blocks were extracted as training samples. Then an improved Laplacian SVM algorithm was proposed to classify data sets. The proposed method was verified on three SAR images. The experiments show that the method not only improves the accuracy of segmentation but also greatly reduces the running time of Laplacian SVM algorithm for image segmentation..

The density of states of the carriers was described with the double Gaussian distributions because of the energy disorders of organic molecules. It was found that the carriers' mobility is almost fixed with doping concentration smaller than 1×1020cm-3. The carriers' mobility increased nonlinearly when the doping concentration was larger than 1×1020cm-3, in well agreement with the experimental results. It was also showed that the increase of mobility as a function of doping concentration for smaller disordered degree is faster than that for larger disordered one. With low doping concentration, the disordered degree has little effect on the mobility. Finally，the doping concentration and the disorder degree dependence of the mobility is used to simulate the variations of the luminescence power density of the device with the voltage bias. It was indicated that the mobility results related to the doping concentration and the disorder is very important for developing organic LED with high performance..

YANG CiYin, ZHANG JianPing, and CAO LiHua
Infrared radiation measurement is one of the important ways for target signature acquirement and target recognition, wherein atmospheric correction is a requisite step for obtaining the real radiation of the target. In the conventional radiation measurement method, it is necessary to measure atmosphere parameters by usInfrared radiation measurement is one of the important ways for target signature acquirement and target recognition, wherein atmospheric correction is a requisite step for obtaining the real radiation of the target. In the conventional radiation measurement method, it is necessary to measure atmosphere parameters by using atmosphere observation devices, and calculate the atmospheric transmittance and the air path radiance from these parameters by using a atmospheric radiation transport calculation software. The uncertainty in the atmospheric transmittance obtained by the conventional method is about 10~20%, and the target radiation inversion precision is about 12~23%. To improve the radiation inversion precision, a novel radiation measurement method based on realtime correction was presented, which measured the atmospheric transmittance with high precision by using a reference blackbody near the target. Models for atmospheric transmittance calculation and target radiation inversion were proposed. Analysis showed that the uncertainty in the atmospheric transmittance obtained by the novel method is about 6~10.5%, and the radiation inversion precision obtained by the novel method is better than 3.5%. A radiation measurement was performed by using a MW infrared camera. Theresults showed that the radiation inversion precision of the conventional method is 7.5～24.7%, while that of the novel method is 0.1~3.4%. The novel method has an important significance for improving the target radiation inversion precision..
