The gate-recessed device with a T-shaped gate exhibits a maximum drain current density of 1.1 A/mm, and a peak value of 421 mS/mm for extrinsic transconductance with minimum short-channel effects because of an InGaN back-barrier layer. A unity current gain cut off frequency(fT) of 30 GHz and a maximum oscillation frequency(fmax) of 105 GHz were obtained. After removing SiN by wet etching, the fT of the device increase from 30 GHZ to 50 GHz and the fmax increases from 105 GHz to 200 GHz, which are the results of lower Cgs and Cgd after removing of Si3N4..

Especially, for p-type HgCdTe single crystals, the evaluation based on conventional measurements at a single magnetic field could lead to erroneous conclusions because of the large ratio of the electron mobility to hole mobility (b=μe/μh≈102). Variable-magnetic-field Hall measurements were performed on bulk-grown HgCdTe single crystals at various temperatures. The mobility spectrum analysis (MSA) technique were employed in this paper. An accurate determination of both the carriers type and the carriers mobility usually involves multicarrier characterization. At the same time, the effect of the autoxidation for the HgCdTe multicarrier system was investigated..

The new method is achieved by week-fixed sensitive parameters so as to control information flow from MODIS thermal infrared data. Based on the thermal infrared radiative transfer theory, a forward retrieval model was established and 14 parameters were retrieved together. The retrieved parameters included LST, average temperature of atmosphere, six bands’ atmospheric transmittances and surface emissivities in mid-infrared(3~5 μm) and infrared(8~145 μm). The algorithm was tested with both MODTRAN simulated data and MODIS data. Compared with that of split-window algorithm, MODIS temperature products and ground truth, the RMSE is 0.57 K,which is better than that of traditional split-window algorithm. The test indicates that the weak-fixed-parameter method is effective to retrieve LST..

LIU Wei, CHANG Qing-Rui, GUO Man, XING Dong-Xing, and YUAN Yong-Sheng
The hyper-spectral reflectance of soil was measured by a ASD FieldSpec within 400～1000 nm, then treated with logarithmic transformation.

From the first dThe hyper-spectral reflectance of soil was measured by a ASD FieldSpec within 400～1000 nm, then treated with logarithmic transformation. First derivative of soil spectra with different scales of differential window were acquired and denoised by the threshold denoising method based on wavelet transform. From the first derivative of soil spectra, feature parameters used as indicators for soil organic matter content were extracted. Results show that: (1) When the number of the scale of differential window was set as W=1~5, it is difficult to identify the spectrum contour and response feature in first derivative of soil spectra because of much noise. (2) When W=6~15, noise in first derivative of soil spectra is partly removed, and spectrum contour is identified roughly. However spectral response feature resulted from different organic content levels can not be identified clearly. (3) When W=16~30, noise in first derivative of soil spectrua is removed effectively. The coefficient of correlation between organic matter content and feature parameter MD19s is 0.803. MD19s can be used as one of the best indicators for soil organic matter content..

Atmospheric volume scattering intensity characteristics were calculated and analyzed according to Mie scattering theory. The results show that the energy of atmospheric volume scatter concentrated mainly in a narrow area of forward scatter angle. The distributions of volume scattering phase relied on particle size distributions, wavelength and complex refraction index, and was diverse for different type of particles. The atmospheric single scattering albedo was influenced by the wavelength and the imaginary of complex refractive index, and varied in a wide value range. The single scattering albedo of urban aerosols was less than that of fogs in the same wavelength. The single scattering albedo of urban aerosols and fogs were inversely proportional to the wavelength..

We report the design of a wide-band and quasi-omnidirectional tabulate metamaterial absorber in the terahertz regime. Simulated results indicate that the absorber has a wide-band strong absorption between 4.36 and 4.91 THz, which is polarization insensitive and wide incident angle. Retrieved real parts of the impedanceWe report the design of a wide-band and quasi-omnidirectional tabulate metamaterial absorber in the terahertz regime. Simulated results indicate that the absorber has a wide-band strong absorption between 4.36 and 4.91 THz, which is polarization insensitive and wide incident angle. Retrieved real parts of the impedance show that by adjusting the electromagnetic response of the metamaterial, the impedance of the absorber could be tuned to match approximatively the impedance of the free space on one side and do not match to the impedance of the free space on the other side, resulting in the minimal reflectance, the minimal transmission and the highest absorbance in the absorption band. Simulated absorbance values under three different loss conditions suggest that high absorbance is mainly due to metallic absorption and dielectric loss can be used to absorb partial energy if there is no metallic absorption. Simulated absorbance values under different electric conductivity values and copper thicknesses suggest that the intensity of metallic absorption can be boosted up by adopting metal of high conductivity or reducing the thickness of metal properly. This absorber may have broad applications in many scientific and technological fields..

Additionally, the most suitable kernel-driven model available for multi-angle thermal imagery has been identified. In the feature space of land surface temperature (LST) and a combination of model coefficients which describes the actual surface directional radiative characteristics, a multi-angle thermal infrared dryness index (MTDI) is constructed and extracted out. The correlation coefficient of simulated MTDI and corresponding Temperature-Vegetation Dryness Index (TVDI) is greater than 0.87. It can be inferred that the kernel driven model is also effective in the analysis of directional radiative information in thermal infrared band..

A model for the radiative heat transfer in this layer was developed. With the method of discrete transfer and the model of light transmission, the heat radiation strength of the shock layer was calculated by the line of sight along the seeker detectors. The relations between the shock wave thermal radiation noise and flow parameters were also analyzed and the empirical formula is given. The results showed that for 3~8 μm infrared band, the thermal radiation noise and the Mach number is closely related. The radiation alters very little with the change of flight height (in atmosphere)..

Furthermore, it can not detect the edge accurately for SAR images. We proposed a method for change detection in SAR images based on the clustering analysis. The proposed method takes gray-levels as an input, uses the quantum bit to define the clustering center, searches the optimal cluster center using the quantum-inspired immune clonal algorithm, and gets the global threshold. Finally, the change-detection map is produced. Compared with K&I threshold, it can achieve a better value. Compared with Genetic Algorithm Based Clustering (GAC), the proposed method can search a much better clustering center quickly and effectively. Besides, it can detect the accurate edge and improve the change detection accuracy..
