多孔硅衬底上ZnS薄膜的白光光致发光

通过脉冲激光沉积（PLD）技术在多孔硅（PS）衬底上制备了ZnS薄膜。用光致发光（PL）的方法观察到白光发射,这个白光是由ZnS薄膜的蓝、绿光和PS的红光叠加形成的。白光光致发光谱是一个从450nm 到700nm的较强的可见光宽谱带。同时研究了激发波长、ZnS薄膜的生长温度、PS的孔隙率和退火温度对ZnS/PS光致发光谱的影响。     

ZnS/PS复合体系的制备和性能表征

以电化学阳极氧化法制备的多孔硅（PS）为衬底,用脉冲激光沉积方法分别在200和300℃下制备了ZnS薄膜,得到ZnS/PS复合体系。利用X射线衍射仪（XRD）、扫描电子显微镜（SEM）、荧光分光光度计分别对ZnS/PS复合体系的晶体结构、形貌和光致发光（PL）特性进行了研究。XRD结果表明,制备的ZnS薄膜呈立方相晶体结构,沿β-ZnS（111）晶向择优取向生长,生长温度较高的样品的XRD衍射峰强度较大。SEM图像显示,生长温度较高的ZnS薄膜表面较致密平整。室温下的PL谱表明,沉积ZnS薄膜后,PS的发光峰发生蓝移。较高的生长温度下,ZnS的自激活发光强度较大,而PS的红光强度较低且峰位红移。根据三基色叠加的原理,ZnS的蓝绿光与PS的红光叠加在一起,ZnS/PS复合体系呈现出较强的白光发射,为固态白光发射器件的实现开辟了一条新的捷径。     

退火温度对ZnS/PS薄膜的晶体结构和光电性质的影响

用脉冲激光沉积法(PLD)在多孔硅(PS)衬底上生长ZnS薄膜,分别在300℃、400℃和500℃下真空退火。用X射线衍射(XRD)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)研究了退火对ZnS薄膜的晶体结构和表面形貌的影响,并测量了ZnS/PS复合体系的光致发光(PL)谱和异质结的I-V特性曲线。研究表明,ZnS薄膜仅在28.5°附近存在着(111)方向的高度取向生长,由此判断薄膜是单晶立方结构的-βZnS。随着退火温度的升高,-βZnS的(111)衍射峰强度逐渐增大,且ZnS薄膜表面变得更加均匀致密,说明高温退火可以有效地促进晶粒的结合并改善结晶质量。ZnS/PS复合体系的PL谱中,随着退火温度升高,ZnS薄膜的自激活发光强度增大,而PS的发光强度减小,说明退火处理更有利于ZnS薄膜的发光。根据三基色叠加的原理,ZnS的蓝、绿光与PS的红光相叠加,ZnS/PS体系可以发射出较强的白光。但过高的退火温度会影响整个ZnS/PS体系的白光发射。ZnS/PS异质结的I-V特性曲线呈现出整流特性,且随着退火温度的升高其正向电流增加。

Resolution Enhancement Technology:Integrated Process Solutions using OPC

DUV lithography, using the 248 nm wavelength, is a viable manufacturing option for devices with features at 130 nm and less. Given the low kl value of the lithography, integrated process development is a necessary method for achieving acceptable process latitude. The application of assist features for rule based OPC requires the simultaneous optimization of the mask, illumination optics and the resist.Described in this paper are the details involved in optimizing each of these aspects for line and space imaging.A reference pitch is first chosen to determine how the optics will be set. The ideal sigma setting is determined by a simple geometrically derived expression. The inner and outer machine settings are determined, in turn,with the simulation of a figure of merit. The maximum value of the response surface of this FOM occurs at the optimal sigma settings. Experimental confirmation of this is shown in the paper.Assist features are used to modify the aerial image of the more isolated images on the mask. The effect that the diffraction of the scattering bars (SBs) has on the image intensity distribution is explained. Rules for determining the size and placement of SBs are also given.Resist is optimized for use with off-axis illumination and assist features. A general explanation of the material' s effect is discussed along with the affect on the through-pitch bias. The paper culminates with the showing of the lithographic results from the fully optimized system.     

Cost-effective test solutions for smart card and other integrated flash applications

From its emergence in the late 1980s as a lower cost alternative to early EEPROM technologies, flash memory has evolved to higher densities and speedsand rapidly growing acceptance in mobile applications.In the process, flash memory devices have placed increased test requirements on manufacturers. Today, as flash device test grows in importance in China, manufacturers face growing pressure for reduced cost-oftest, increased throughput and greater return on investment for test equipment. At the same time, the move to integrated flash packages for contactless smart card applications adds a significant further challenge to manufacturers seeking rapid, low-cost test.     

Theoretical analysis of the relationship between the Brillouin gain coefficient and the strain in the optical-fiber sensors

The relation between the power of the Brillouin signal and the strain is one of the bases of the distributed fiber sensors of temperature and strain. The coefficient of the Bfillouin gain can be changed by the temperature and the strain that will affect the power of the Brillouin scattering. The relation between the change of the Brillouin gain coefficient and the strain is thought to be linear by many researchers. However, it is not always linear based on the theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Therefore, errors will be caused if the relation between the change of the Brillouin gain coefficient and the strain is regarded as to be linear approximately for measuring the temperature and the strain. For this reason, the influence of the parameters on the Brillouin gain coefficient is proposed through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation.     

An improved parallel thinning algorithm with two subiterations

The parallel thinning algorithm with two subiterations is improved in this paper. By analyzing the notions of connected components and passes, a conclusion is drawn that the number of passes and the number of eight-connected components are equal. Then the expression of the number of eight-connected components is obtained which replaces the old one in the algorithm. And a reserving condition is proposed by experiments, which alleviates the excess deletion where a diagonal line and a beeline intersect. The experimental results demonstrate that the thinned curve is almost located in the middle of the original curve connectivelv with single pixel width and the processing speed is high.     

Novel fiber-optical interferometer with miniaturized probe for in-hole measurements

Today, micro-system technology and the development of new MEMS （Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems） are emerging rapidly. In order for this development to become a success in the long run, measurement systems have to ensure product quality. Most often, MEMS have to be tested by means of functionality or destructive tests. One reason for this is that there are no suitable systems or sensing probes available which can be used for the measurement of quasi inaccessible features like small holes or cavities. We present a measurement system that could be used for these kinds of measurements. The system combines a fiber optical, miniaturized sensing probe with low-coherence interferometry, so that absolute distance measurements with nanometer accuracy are possible.

Study of waveguide coupling efficiency in hybrid silicon lasers

This paper presents a new method to increase the waveguide coupling efficiency in hybrid silicon lasers. We find that the propagation constant of the InGaAsP emitting layer can be equal to that of the Si resonant layer through improving the design size of the InP waveguide. The coupling power achieves 42% of the total power in the hybrid lasers when the thickness of the bonding layer is 100 nm. Our result is very close to 50% of the total power reported by Intel when the thickness of the thin bonding layer is less than 5 nm. Therefore, our invariable coupling power technique is simpler than Intel＇s.     

Collinear phase-matching study of terahertz-wave generation via difference frequency mixed in GaAs and Inp

The collinearly phase-matching condition of terahertz-wave generation via difference frequency mixed in GaAs and InP is theoretically studied. In collinear phase-matching, the optimum phase-matching wave hands of these two crystals are calculated. The optimum phase-matching wave bands in GaAs and lnP are 0.95-1.38μm and 0.7-0.96μm respectively. The influence of the wavelength choice of the pump wave on the coherent length in THz-wave tuning is also discussed. The influence of the temperature alteration on the phase-matching and the temperature tuning properties in GaAs crystal are calculated and analyzed. It can serve for the following experiments as a theoretical evidence and a reference as well.

Composition dependence of bulk and surface phonon-polaritons in ternary mixed crystals are studied in the framework of the modified random-element-isodisplacement model and the Bom-Huang approximation. The numerical results for Several Ⅱ - Ⅵ and Ⅲ- Ⅴ compound systems are performed, and the polariton frequencies as functions of the compositions for ternary mixed crystals AlxGa1-xAs, GaPxAS1-x, ZnSxSe1-x, GaAsxSb1-x, GaxIn1-xP, and ZnxCd1-xS as examples are given and discussed. The results show that the dependence of the energies of two branches of bulk phonon-polaritons which have phonon-like characteristics, and surface phonon-polaritons on the compositions of ternary mixed crystals are nonlinear and different from those of the corresponding binary systems.

The configuration of the device is ITO/CuPc/NPD/Zn（salen）/Liq/LiF/A1/CuPc/NPD/Zn（salen）/Liq/LiF/A1. Effective insert electrode layers comprising LiF（1nm）/Al（5 nm） are used as a single semitransparent mirror, and bilayer cathode LiF（1 nm）/A1（100 nm） is used as a reflecting mirror. The two mirrors form a Fabry-Perot microcavity and two emissive units. The maximum brightness and luminous efficiency reach 674 cd/m^2 and 2.652 cd/A, respectively, which are 2.1 and 3.7 times higher than the conventional device, respectively. The superior brightness and luminous efficiency over conventional single-unit devices are attributed to microcavity effect.
