LI Dong-Xue, WANG Tian-Meng, SHEN Wen-Zhong, ZHANG Yue-Heng, LI Xue, and LI Tao
Crosstalk characteristic is closely correlated to higher sensitivity and higher resolution imaging of focal plane array (FPA). The electrical crosstalk of typical planar and mesa In0.53Ga0.47As/InP FPAs as a function of illumination wavelength, incidence, as well as the etching depth in the mesa structures was investigCrosstalk characteristic is closely correlated to higher sensitivity and higher resolution imaging of focal plane array (FPA). The electrical crosstalk of typical planar and mesa In0.53Ga0.47As/InP FPAs as a function of illumination wavelength, incidence, as well as the etching depth in the mesa structures was investigated quantitatively in detail by simulation. It was demonstrated that mesa structures possess better electrical crosstalk characteristics compared with the planar designs. Significantly, the crosstalk is lower for shorter wavelength radiation while the front-side illumination devices show better electrical crosstalk characteristics than do the back-side illuminated devices. It is ascribed to the influence of material absorption depth and the p-i junction depletion width of such structures. It was also found that the electrical crosstalk appears to be greatly suppressed when the etching depth of the mesa structure covers the entire absorption layer of the device. The results suggest design rules for InGaAs FPA with low electrical crosstalk..

ZHU Hui-Hui, FENG Fei, WANG Yue-Lin, and LI Xin-Xin
The diode microbolometer uncooled IRFPAs (infrared focal plane arrays, IRFPAs) have shown broad prospects in recent years. The performance of the IRFPAs is limited by sources of noise from the detector itself which must be further studied and decreased to achieve better performance. This paper outlines sources of noiseThe diode microbolometer uncooled IRFPAs (infrared focal plane arrays, IRFPAs) have shown broad prospects in recent years. The performance of the IRFPAs is limited by sources of noise from the detector itself which must be further studied and decreased to achieve better performance. This paper outlines sources of noise from the detector, quantifies the RMS (root-mean-square, RMS) noise voltages from different noise sources, discusses their implications and finally obtains performance limits of the diode microbolometer IRFPA. Moreover, the optimum structural parameters are also studied. The theoretical computation results show that the temperature fluctuation noise-limited NETD (noise-equivalent temperature difference, NETD) of the detector is 2.36mK with a corresponding radiation-limited conductance of 2.06 nW/K. In addition, the optimum NETD of 46.5 mK can be obtained when the detector operates in the forward bias current of 33 μA and the ratio of temperature sensing area is 54% in a 25 μm×25 μm micromachined structure..

A semitransparent NiCr metal thin film on top of the device served as both electrode and absorption layer. The experimental results reveal that P(VDF-TrFE) has good ferroelectric and pyroelectric properties with remanent polarization 7.1 μC/cm2 and pyroelectric coefficient 27 μC/m2K respectively.

ZHANG Ying, WEI Shen-Jin, YI Xin-Yu, CHENG Shuai, CHEN Kun, ZHU Huan-Feng, LI Jing, and LV Lei
The influence of Ti dopant in the titanium-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 film upon its optical and structural characteristics has been investigated by spectroscopic ellipsometry and x-ray diffraction. Temperature-dependent resistance tests have further revealed that Ti-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 films have better thermal stability than undopedThe influence of Ti dopant in the titanium-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 film upon its optical and structural characteristics has been investigated by spectroscopic ellipsometry and x-ray diffraction. Temperature-dependent resistance tests have further revealed that Ti-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 films have better thermal stability than undoped one. Based on the Arrhenius extrapolation results from data retention tests, the endurance temperature corresponding to 10-year data retention of a Ti-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 cell is higher than that of a common Ge2Sb2Te5 cell without dopant. All these experimental results have confirmed that the Ti-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 films are more suitable for the application in phase-change random access memory..

The LNA MMIC is developed in Cascode topology and coplanar waveguide technology, which result in a very compact chip with size of 900 μm × 975 μm and a rather high linear gain over 10 dB from 84 GHz to 100 GHz with the maximum value of 15.2 dB at 95 GHz. To our knowledge, this single-stage LNA MMIC exhibits the highest gain-per-stage and competitive gain-area ratio among reported W-band LNA MMICs. Additionally, the amplifier also demonstrates a relatively low noise figure of 4.3 dB at 87.5 GHz and a fairly high saturated output power of 8.03 dBm at 88.8 GHz at room temperature. The successful fabrication of LNA MMIC is of great significance on building a W-band signal receiver-front-end system..

It aims to solve the artifacts and blurriness caused by the none-strictly sparsity and the noisy Fourier undersamples. Semi-random Fourier measurements are presented for encoding, which can preserve approximating components of images and retain the incoherence by random undersamples in the periphery of K-space. The steering kernel derived from multistep gradients is exploited to encapsulate with finite-difference Total Variance (TV) in the unconstrained convex framework for decoding. Numerical results demonstrate the superior performance of this algorithm in the case of noiseless and noisy measurements for compressed remote sensing..

Zero-field spin splitting was extracted by measuring the weak anti-localization effect and the high field effective g-factor, g*, was extracted by fitting the tilt angle θ-dependent spacing of spin-splitted Rxx peaks. The Dingle plot is shown to be nonlinear, which can be attributed to the long-range scattering potential from the doping Be atoms near the substrate..

A stable single-longitudinal-mode dual-wavelength (SLM-DW) multiple ring fiber laser with a tunable wavelength spacing was proposed and demonstrated. In the multiple ring cavities, the mode selection is made by the tunable digital micro-mirror device (DMD) filter and two different length passive sub-ring cavities. The A stable single-longitudinal-mode dual-wavelength (SLM-DW) multiple ring fiber laser with a tunable wavelength spacing was proposed and demonstrated. In the multiple ring cavities, the mode selection is made by the tunable digital micro-mirror device (DMD) filter and two different length passive sub-ring cavities. The DMD filter can select and couple any two wavelengths from the gain spectrum of the erbium-doped fiber (EDF). The SLM lasing is guaranteed by the two sub-ring cavities which serve as a mode filter. The stable and uniform dual-wavelength oscillation is obtained by the highly-nonlinear photonic crystal fiber (HN-PCF), which can generate the four-wave-mixing (FWM) effective. By loading different gratings on the DMD filter without any mechanically shift, the tunable wavelength spacing from appropriately 0.165 nm to 1.08 nm within a tuning accuracy of 0.055 nm is achieved at room temperature..

This method estimates the global translation by the projection estimator and iterates between several adjacent frames. The detailed method includes three main steps. First, we develop a new projection estimator for the registration with a criterion. Then, correlation of adjacent frames, together with iteration strategy between them, is used in order to get fast and reliable fixed-pattern noise (FPN) reduction with low few ghosting artifacts. Finally, this algorithm is immigrated into an FPGA-based hardware system. We test the performance of our algorithm by the evaluation indexes, and demonstrate the actual effect of correcting the non-uniformity under a monotonous motion on the system. In order to compare with the gated adaptive least mean square (GALMS) method and the total variation (TV) method, a clean infrared image sequences with synthetic non-uniformity is studied. Normal distributed gain and offset non-uniformity are applied to the image sequences to study the relationship of iteration times and level of non-uniformity..

A newly designed terahertz quantum-well photodetector (THz QWP) sandwiched between GaAs and GaAs/Al0.04Ga0.96As material was demonstrated. Experimentally, we measure the response photocurrent spectra and the current-voltage curve and obtain the peak response of 6.78 THz and background-noise-limited performance (BLIP) tA newly designed terahertz quantum-well photodetector (THz QWP) sandwiched between GaAs and GaAs/Al0.04Ga0.96As material was demonstrated. Experimentally, we measure the response photocurrent spectra and the current-voltage curve and obtain the peak response of 6.78 THz and background-noise-limited performance (BLIP) temperature of 16 K. Theoretically, we investigated the many body effect to the band structure of THz QWP and calculate the peak response of 6.64 THz which is in agreement with the experiment. So, many-body effect must be included in the design of THz QWPs. Then, we calculate the BLIP temperature of 17.5 K which is fitted well with the measurement. However, the low BLIP temperature is the main factor limiting applications of THz QWPs; we propose two schemes to improve the operating temperatures. Firstly, a scheme using an optical antenna to increase the BLIP temperature is proposed. Calculation shows the device is expected to achieve BLIP at 76 K when employing a 106 enhancement antenna. The second scheme is to use a THz quantum cascade laser as signal source to achieve photon-noise-limited performance (PLIP) at high temperatures. Simulations show that when the illumination intensity reaches 0.01 mW/μm2, the operation temperature could be 77 K..

This two-step algorithm examined changes in absorption aph(665) and associated to POC concentrations though a measured relationship between aph(665) POC determined in extensive measurements in this large eutrophic lake. Two different aph(665) algorithms were explored. While both provided good estimates of POC concentrations, Gons algorithm (RMSErel=2190%) was superior to that of Simis (RMSErel=23.81%). This approach was developed for medium-spectral resolution satellite senors, such as MERIS or Sentinel 3-OLCI. The application of this approach will provide new insights to our understanding of the aquatic carbon cycle in inland waters..

The thickness and dielectric constants of thin films usually have certain correlation in the fitting procedure of spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). The choice of different dispersion models may also influence the results and cause errors. As the fitting is influenced by the dispersion models adopted in the analysis, theThe thickness and dielectric constants of thin films usually have certain correlation in the fitting procedure of spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). The choice of different dispersion models may also influence the results and cause errors. As the fitting is influenced by the dispersion models adopted in the analysis, the uniqueness test has been introduced into SE fitting. The results of uniqueness test have been compared with different dispersion models, different film thicknesses, different wavelength ranges and different incident angles using titanium dioxide samples as an example. It is indicated that uniqueness test is efficient in evaluating the fitting for SE measurement. Uniqueness test can also provide quantitative comparison among different dispersion models and contribute to fitting precision..
