In this paper, two D-band (110~170 GHz) monolithic millimeter-wave integrated circuit (MMIC) amplifiers have been designed and realized using 90-nm InAlAs/InGaAs/InP high gain electron mobility transistors (HEMT) technology. The amplifiers are developed in common source and microstrip technology. The three-stage MMIC amplifier A is designed based on device A and measured on wafer with a small-signal peak gain of 11.2 dB at 140 GHz and 3-dB-bandwidth is 16 GHz with a chip size of 2.6 mm×1.2 mm. The two-stage MMIC amplifier B is designed based on device B and measured on wafer with a small-signal peak gain of 15.8 dB at 139 GHz and 3-dB-bandwidth is 12 GHz and the gain is higher than 10 dB from 130 GHz to 150 GHz with a chip size of 1.7 mm×0.8 mm. The amplifier B also shows an excellent noise character with noise figure of 4.4 dB when the associa-ted gain of 15 dB is acquired at 141 GHz and the average noise figure is about 5.2 dB over the bandwidth. The amplifier B exhibits a higher gain-per-stage, competitive gain-area ratio and lower noise figure. The successful realization of MMIC amplifiers is of great potential for receiver-front-end applications at D-band..

A 0.18 μm CMOS process single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) was examined in this study in an effort to inhibit premature edge breakdown (PEB) and secure large photocurrent and low dark count rate (DCR). The SPAD consists of a p-well/deep n-well photosensitive junction and a guard ring as-formed by a deep n-well up-diffused region and an edge STI. The size of the STI layer related to the light current and dark rate was determined via test. The results indicate that the photocurrent and dark count of the SPAD are optimal when the overlapping length between the STI and guard ring is 1 μm at room temperature. The SPAD with 10 μm diameter has high photon detection probability (PDP), wide spectral response, dark count rate as low as 208 Hz, and 20.8% peak PDP when the wavelength is 510 nm.

This paper introduces two designs of balanced frequency triplers in 0.68 THz and 1.00 THz bands. The proposed triplers are based on discrete antiparallel Schottky diodes and quartz glass instead of terahertz integrated circuit. The merits of this work are attributed to the improvement of the diode model, the thinned quartz glass film and the machining accuracy of the waveguide. The improved LEC diode model considers not only the current-voltage (I/V) and capacitance-voltage (C/V) but also plasma resonance and skin effect. The quartz glass film is thinned to 15um and can be used for up to 1.2 THz. The machining accuracy of the waveguide is (±3) μm for terahertz applications with channel size 60 μm. The measurement shows a peak output power above 160 μW and 60 μW for the 0.68 THz and 1.00 THz triplers, respectively. Moreover, the efficiencies of the 0.68 THz and 1.00 THz triplers are around 1% and 0.6% correspondingly. The output frequency bandwidths are both more than 10%..

The tunable high performance multi-channel wavelength demultiplexer (WDM) based on metal-insulator-metal (MIM) plasmonic ring resonators is designed and numerically investigated. By the resonant theory of ring cavity, we find that the channel wavelength of WDM can be easily manipulated by adjusting the radius and refractive index of the ring cavity, which is in good agreement with the results obtained by finite element method (FEM) simulations. The multi-channel WDM structure consisting of a plasmonic waveguide and several ring resonators increases the transmission up to 80% at telecommunication regime, which is two times higher than the results reported in a recent literature. The proposed compact multi-channel wavelength demultiplexer can find more applications for the ultra-compact WDM systems in highly integrated telecommunication circuits..

In this paper, a method to accurately measure the supercooling of HgCdTe films grown by LPE has been proposed. Influences of supercooling on the thickness uniformity of HgCdTe films have been studied by combining with optical Microscope, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), step profiler and White-light Interferometer (WLI). Results show that, thickness in the center of a 20 mm×25 mm film decreases when supercooling is less than 2℃, while it increases significantly with cross-hatch pattern when supercooling is more than 3℃. Thickness variation of a 20 mm×25 mm film could be less than 0.5 μm, and the surface roughness is comparable with CZT substrate when the supercooling is around 2.5℃..

The results of a Cl2/ N2 inductively coupled plasma (ICP) reactive ion etching process on InAs/GaSb superlattices infrared focal plane arrays were reported. A standard PIN device structure based on GaSb substrate was applied in all samples grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The etching results including etching rate and mesa sidewall profile were affected by gas flow ratios directly, The higher the chlorine content was, the higher the etching rate was. When the nitrogen content increases, the etching rate decreases and tends to a certain value. When other parameters such as chamber pressure et al. were fixed, the etching rate and selection ratio increased linearly with temperature increasing. The mesa tended to be right angle, and the layered texture profile gradually disappeared, while the channel became rough and even pitted. Within the scope of this study, ICP and RF power had little effect on the etching results..

The midium wave (MW) HgCdTe avalanche photodiodes (HgCdTe APDs) were prepared by two different processes. The pn junction characteristics and the relation between gain and bias voltage for HgCdTe APDs were characterized by two different methods. The gain-bias curves of APDs were fitted based on the Beck model and Shockley′s analytical expression. The results show that the widths of the saturated depletion region for APDs fabricated by two different processes are 1.2μm and 2.5μm respectively. The wide depletion region effectively suppresses the tunneling current at high reverse bias. The effective gain of the device increases from nearly 100 to over 1000. Shockley′s analytical expression gives an excellent fit to the gain-bias curves of HgCdTe APDs, and the fitting parameters are similar to the results of J. Rothman at Sofradir..

An infrared imaging simulation method for aerial targets is proposed. According to the law of energy conservation, the surface temperature field is solved by using the thermal equilibrium equation of the target in the sky background. The suitable bidirectional reflection distribution function model is selected to describe the reflection characteristics of the target surface element in the infrared band, which improves the realism of the infrared reflection of face element. Taking into account the geometric model of air target, the infrared radiation of target itself and the reflected radiation to background render the infrared image of aerial target in combination with the relevant theories of computer graphics. The modeling and simulation methods provide a reference for the detection, identification and tracking of aerial targets..

Based on the microsatellite constellation, meteorological forecast has been greatly improved in terms of temporal and spatial resolution. To separate the frequency in RF front-end system of the microsatellite atmospheric microwave sounder, a waveguide diplexer with compact size and low insertion loss is adopted. A 166/183 GHz diplexer was designed by using equivalent circuit method and mode-matching technology. According to the actual situation of machining, the effects of iris steepness and iris thickness on the performance of the diplexer are analyzed in the simulation. Through the analysis of the split-block realization and the machining defects, the way of machining is continuously optimized to obtain a satisfactory machining sample. The maximum measured insertion loss is 1.5 dB, the minimum measured return loss is 15 dB, and the measured out-band rejection is higher than 27 dB. The simulation results are consistent with the measured results, which proves that the diplexer design method is feasible..

Land surface temperature is one of the important parameters of geogas interaction and energy exhange.In order to obtain the land surface temperature data with high spatial resolution,this research improved a method of downscaling thermal infrared remote image, and was verified using Shanghai Landsat 8OLI/TIRS image as the data source. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was decomposed into low frequency layer,edge layer and detail layer, in which edge layer and detail layer are scaled up to the thermal infrared data.The proposed algorithm used simulated LST(270 m) as a downscaling data source to achieve downscaling LST(90 m),and compared with the classical thermal infrared downscaling method DisTrad algorithm and TsHARP algorithm.The results show that all three downscaling methods preserve the spatial characteristics of the original land surface temperature, but the DisTrad algorithm and the TsHARP algorithm add the detailed information that does not exist in original land surface temperature data. The improved three-layers decomposition model has a root mean square error of 0.913 K,which is 0.937 K and 0.832 K higher than the DisTrad method and the TsHARP method..

Low excitation-power density photoluminescence (PL) spectra suffered from poor spectral signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)and hence restricted the study of the band-tail states in GaAs1-xBix. We conduct laser spot-size-dependent PL measurements on two GaAs1-xBix epitaxial films by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer-based PL system with enhanced sensitivity. It is observed that (i) with constant excitation power, increase of laser-spot diameter leads to a redshift of the PL-peak position and a linewidth evolution of first decreasing and then increasing, which is attributed to the decrease of the equivalent excitation power density, and (ii) with a constant excitation power density of 5.1 W/mm2, the PL lineshape is unchanged while the SNR is significantly improved as the laser spot diameter rises. As a result, the weak transition features are well resolved in the PL spectra taken at low excitation power density, and can be safely treated by spectral fitting analysis. The result indicates that adequate increase of excitation spot-size contributes to the improvement of the SNR and sensitivity as well for PL measurement at low excitation-power density..

Big-bore and flexible dielectric-coated metallic waveguides were fabricated with various dielectric film thicknesses. Transmission characteristics were measured for the metallic waveguides and dielectric-coated metallic waveguides in G band, 4.3 THz, and mid-infrared regions. Measured results show that waveguide loss in G band increases with the increase of dielectric film thickness. Loss for the 2.6 mm-bore metallic waveguide is 2.1 dB/m at the frequency of 160 GHz and the additional loss caused by bending for the waveguide is small. Waveguide loss at 4.3 THz decreases with the increase of dielectric film thickness. And the additional loss caused by bending for the dielectric-coated metallic waveguide decreases with the increase of dielectric film thickness. Loss for the 3.6 mm-bore dielectric-coated metallic waveguide with 1.2 μm dielectric film thickness is 2.84 dB/m. Measured beam profiles show that energy is more concentrated in the low-order transmission mode as the film thickness increases..

The high resistance and severe optical absorption brought by the traditional P-side distributed Bragg reflectors (P-DBRs) have been the bottleneck of the development of 2.0 μm GaSb based vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). For this reason, a P-side mirror with high contrast subwavelength grating (HCG) is designed and simulated by the rigorous coupled wave analysis method. The testing results show the HCGmirror,easy to make, has 278nm bandwidth with reflectivity more than 99.5% and 148 nm bandwidth with reflectivity greater than 99.9% around the central wavelength of 20 μm for TM mode. Such a mirror can fully meet the requirements of VCSELs, and can effectively avoid the problem of diffraction characteristics deterioration caused by heteroepitaxy and so on..

For tracking infrared weak targets, a box particle labeled multi-bernoulli multi-target detection and tracking algorithm was proposed. To begin with, the algorithm uses the mean filter to denoise the grayscale image. Then, the region with higher intensity is selected as the interval measurement at current time by sorting the intensity of all the pixels. Finally, the box particle labeled multi-bernoulli filter is applied to tracking. Simulation are presented to demonstrate that the BOX-LMB-DT algorithm has stable and effective performance. In the same conditions, compared with the LMB particle filter under interval measurement, the operation efficiency of the BOX-LMB filtering is improved by 22.59% when the same tracking performance is achieved..

The identification of supercooled water droplets in the cloud is of great significance for the physical process of cloud-precipitation and warning aircraft icing. In this paper, the spectral peak recognition algorithm is established by the U.S. ARM1-AMF2 spectral data of the 35 GHz cloud radar in Finland. The spectral separation of the total spectrum is obtained, and then the supercooled water droplets are identified. Next the supercooled water droplets are identified. Next, the reflectivity, doppler velocity and spectral width of different types of particles are calculated by spectral moment. Finally, the liquid water content in the cloud is retrieved from the empirical relationship and compared with the detection results of the microwave radiometer. The results are as follows (1)The radar reflectivity factor of mixed-phase clouds mainly depends on snow. Therefore, it is considered that the effective volume of radar is snow. The cloud liquid water content will be underestimated according to the total reflectivity.(2) The gradient of Doppler velocity(V) of ice and snow particles in the supercooled water layer(SWL) larger than that in the ice and snow layer(ISL). (3) The liquid path(LWP) obtained by the Doppler spectrum is good agreement with the microwave radiometer. It shows that the millimeter wave radar can effectively estimate the liquid water path in the cloud..

Terahertz frequency comb, which is generated from femtosecond frequency comb, is applied to measure the spatial radiant power density of terahertz source. Two technologies, electro-optic sampling and photoconductive detection, are applied to generate terahertz frequency comb, and the spatial power density of a 100 GHz source is measured with both of these two techniques. The total radiant power is traceable to a standard terahertz radiometer, and the absolute power density of the terahertz source is obtained. The measurement results with both of the two techniques, electro-optic sampling with 800 nm femtosecond optical pulse in free space and photoconductive antenna detection with 1550 nm femtosecond optical pulse in fiber, are analyzed and compared. Moreover, the spatial power density of the terahertz radiation at different distance away from the terahertz source are measured, and the involvement of the terahertz radiation in free space is experimentally studied..
