A high-performance multichannel dual-gate poly-Si TFT fabricated by excimer laser irradiation on a floating a-Si thin film

A new excimer laser annealing (ELA) process that uses a floating amorphous-Silicon (a-Si) thin film with a multichannel structure is proposed for high-performance poly-Si thin-film transistors (TFTs). The proposed ELA method produces two-dimensional (2-D) grain growth, which can result in a high-quality grain structure. The dual-gate structure was employed to eliminate the grain boundaries perpendicular to the current flow in the channel. A multichannel structure was adapted in order to arrange the grain boundary to be parallel to the current flow. The proposed poly-Si TFT exhibits high-performance electrical characteristics, which are a high mobility of 504 cm/sup 2//Vsec and a low subthreshold slope of 0.337 V/dec.     

新的启迪

说点心里的话，建筑设计对青年人来讲是一条漫长的道路。建筑是一个载体，有精神一面，也有物质一面。有些建筑师拿着模型或未建成的设计来炒作，为了求名，生怕别人不知道。这对个人是小事，但若贻误了青年学子，那就是不可取的。     

Ultralow-voltage boron-doped diamond field emitter vacuum diode

A boron-doped diamond field emitter diode with ultralow turn-on voltage and high emission current is reported. The diamond field emitter diode structure with a built-in cap was fabricated using molds and electrostatic bonding techniques. The emission current versus anode voltage of the capped diamond emitter diode with boron doping, sp² content, and vacuum thermal electric (VTE) treatment shows a very low turn-on voltage of 2 V. A high emission current of 1 μA at an anode voltage of less than 10 V can be obtained from a single diamond tip. The turn-on voltage is significantly lower than comparable silicon field emitters     

Reliability and performance analysis of time – space – time switching networks with multiple separated space switches

Since electronic switching systems usually require very strict reliability requirements as well as good performance objectives, we need to jointly analyse the performance and reliability of switching systems. In this paper, we compare conventional time–space–time switches with single space switches with those with multiple separated space switches, from the viewpoints of reliability and performance. We consider time–space–time switching networks which consist of N incoming time switches, i.e. one NxN space switch, two (N/2)x(N/2) space switches, and four (N/4)x(N/4) space switches. We introduce a Markov reliability model to study the effect of failures and analyse the reliability and performance of three different types of switching networks in terms of average blocking probability and the mean time to unreliable operation, as we vary the offered traffic. As a result, T–S–T switching networks with multiple separated space switches exhibit better performance and reliability than those with single space switches.     

Statistical properties of out-of-frame detection schemes fordigital transmission systems

The importance of the misframe times for DS1 frame synchronization has often been addressed in designing and using network elements and mediation units. By extending the work of J. H. Eu and W. W. Rollins (1991), Markov chain first passage time analysis is used to derive higher moments of the misframe times in both random and burst error environments. This methodology is of great value in evaluating frame synchronization techniques for digital transmission systems. By experimenting with several out-of-frame detection schemes and reasonable values for bit error ratio (BER), it is shown that misframe times are always approximately exponentially distributed for all schemes     

Study on phase behavior–impact strength relationship of unsaturated polyester/polyurethane hybrid polymer network

The phase behavior of a hybrid polymer network (HPN) composed of poly[(propylene glycol maleate)-co-(propylene glycol phthalate)] crosslinked with styrene and polyester–urethane crosslinked with methylene-bis-ortho-chloroaniline was examined. The correlation between phase separation and impact strength of the HPNs is discussed. The composition of HPNs has an effect on their properties.     

Parasitic Bipolar Junction Transistors in a Floating-Gate MOSFET for Fluorescence Detection

In this letter, we examined whether the parasitic bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) in the MOSFET fabricated by the standard CMOS process can play a role as a fluorescence detector. To suppress the action of two vertical parasitic BJTs, the gate and n-well were tied in the parasitic BJTs, and the body node was connected to the drain. The proposed device was compared with the inherent and the parasitic diodes in the MOSFET. It had 100 times higher photocurrents than the diodes in the MOSFET. In addition, it was applied for the detection of the fluorescent signal, and could detect near 10 nM of Alexa 546. Therefore, CMOS-process-compatible parasitic BJTs can be used as a photodetector in an integrated fluorescence detector.     

悟

“悟”是一种对客观的事和物的一种感知,是对事和物获取了解、获取知效,是人们求得理解的一种启示、一种认识的过程。一般地说,“我对事和物,意在彻悟”,是指人们得到充分的悟性,特别对意、意义的悟,有的很快领会,有的要耗费时日,有的要经过一定的时间乃至终身。悟性就是理解的     

力量空间

设计师做自己办公空间设计往往想法很多,也很苛求。这种设计状态会令将来的作品显得杂乱、稚嫩, 容易出现“昏招”,或者流于刻板、拘谨、不灵动。我懂得调整自己的状态:有时记住自己是甲方,可以任意发挥,有时把它忘了,也就不必太苛求,以致经常改动设计,不坚决。由于急于搬迁的缘故,加之那时我正好出差在外,所以本案设计周期较短。几天时间在宾馆里伏案设计,倒给出了一个好的状态:略去许多泉涌的想法, 只抓住最好的,好比画者在做速写,把控大局。凭我个人的喜好和习惯,以及对设计公司办公空间的理解与思考,我在凝神中拔高自己,发现塑造一种力量空间会比较接近于表达设计师这种群体的周遭环境,无需过多地出招,无需捕捉人的眼球。力量是潜在的,它无处不在,闭着眼也能抓住你的心。我就这样确立了设计主旨。     

浅析汉臣在忽必烈即位过程中的作用

蒙元王朝是一个少数民族政权,在对汉人的任用问题上十分敏感,大部分蒙古最高统治者对汉臣的防范多于信任,甚至干脆不用汉臣,而元世祖忽必烈在元朝的统治者中算是比较开明的,特别是他即位之前及中统时期,大量任用汉臣,这些汉臣也给予了忽必烈充分的回报,他们在忽必烈还是亲王时,充当王府幕僚,为忽必烈出谋划策,积蓄力量,后来又为其夺取汗位立下了汗马功劳.
