Low-Power Programmable Pseudorandom Word Generator and Clock Multiplier Unit for High-Speed SerDes Applications

This paper presents the design of a low-power programmable pseudorandom word generator (PRWG) and a low-noise clock multiplier unit (CMU) for high-speed SerDes applications. The PRWG is capable of producing test patterns with sequence length of $2 ^{7} -1$, $2 ^{10} -1$, $2 ^{15} -1$, $2 ^{23} -1$, and $2 ^{31} -1~hbox{b}$ according to CCITT recommendations, and the random word is 16-bit wide. High-speed and low-power operations of the PRWG are achieved by parallel feedback techniques. The measured jitter of the CMU is only 3.56 ${hbox {ps}}_{rm rms}$, and the data jitter at the PRWG output is mainly determined by the CMU. Implemented in an 0.18-$mu{hbox {m}}$ CMOS process, the power dissipation for the PRWG is only 10.8 mW, and the CMU consumes about 87 mW from a 1.8-V supply. This PRWG can be used as a low-cost substitute for external parallel test pattern generators.      

Multiconstrained QoS multipath routing in wireless sensor networks

Sensor nodes are densely deployed to accomplish various applications because of the inexpensive cost and small size. Depending on different applications, the traffic in the wireless sensor networks may be mixed with time-sensitive packets and reliability-demanding packets. Therefore, QoS routing is an important issue in wireless sensor networks. Our goal is to provide soft-QoS to different packets as path information is not readily available in wireless networks. In this paper, we utilize the multiple paths between the source and sink pairs for QoS provisioning. Unlike E2E QoS schemes, soft-QoS mapped into links on a path is provided based on local link state information. By the estimation and approximation of path quality, traditional NP-complete QoS problem can be transformed to a modest problem. The idea is to formulate the optimization problem as a probabilistic programming, then based on some approximation technique, we convert it into a deterministic linear programming, which is much easier and convenient to solve. More importantly, the resulting solution is also one to the original probabilistic programming. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

Effects of NH3 plasma passivation on N-channelpolycrystalline silicon thin-film transistors

The NH₃-plasma passivation has been performed on polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin-film transistors (TFT's), It is found that the TFT's after the NH₃-plasma passivation achieve better device performance, including the off-current below 0.1 pA/μm and the on/off current ratio higher than 10⁸, and also better hot-carrier reliability than the H₂-plasma devices. Based on optical emission spectroscopy (OES) and secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) analysis, these improvements were attributed to not only the hydrogen passivation of the defect states, but also the nitrogen pile-up at SiO₂/poly-Si interface and the strong Si-N bond formation to terminate the dangling bonds at the grain boundaries of the polysilicon films. Furthermore, the gate-oxide leakage current significantly decreases and the oxide breakdown voltage slightly increases after applying NH₃-plasma treatment. This novel process is of potential use for the fabrication of TFT/LCD's and TFT/SRAM's     

A physical and scalable I-V model in BSIM3v3 for analog/digitalcircuit simulation

A new physical and continuous BSIM (Berkeley Short-Channel IGFET Model) I-V model in BSIM3v3 is presented for circuit simulation. Including the major physical effects in state-of-the art MOS devices, the model describes current characteristics from subthreshold to strong inversion as well as from the linear to the saturation operating regions with a single I-V expression, and guarantees the continuities of I_ds, conductances and their derivatives throughout all V_gs, V_ds, and T_bs, bias conditions. Compared with the previous BSIM models, the improved model continuity enhances the convergence property of the circuit simulators. Furthermore, the model accuracy has also been enhanced by including the dependencies of geometry and bias of parasitic series resistances, narrow width, bulk charge, and DIBL effects. The new model has the extensive built-in dependencies of important dimensional and processing parameters (e.g., channel length, width, gate oxide thickness, junction depth, substrate doping concentration, etc.). It allows users to accurately describe the MOSFET characteristics over a wide range of channel lengths and widths for various technologies, and is attractive for statistical modeling. The model has been implemented in the circuit simulators such as Spectre, Hspice, SmartSpice, Spice3e2, and so on

AlGaInP-sapphire glue bonded light-emitting diodes

A novel method was proposed to glue an AlGaInP-GaAs light-emitting diode (LED) onto a transparent sapphire substrate. The absorbing GaAs was subsequently removed by selective wet etching. It was found that the emission efficiency could reach 401 m/W under 20-mA current injection for the 622-nm glue bonded (GB) AlGaInP-sapphire LED. It was also found that these GB LEDs are highly reliable, with small variations in operation voltage and luminescence intensity during the life test.     

Effects of information sharing on supply chain performance in electronic commerce

As businesses adopt electronic commerce, information exchange between business partners within a supply chain becomes more essential. Information exchange is often considered when companies implement the Extranet. This study aims to analyze the impact of various levels of information sharing including order, inventory, and demand information, which is based on transaction costs. This study further examines the effects on supply chain performance in electronic commerce. Specifically, the multiagent simulation system Swarm is employed to simulate and analyze the buyer-seller correlation in sharing information among business partners in supply chains. Our findings indicate that the more detailed information shared between firms, the lower the total cost, the higher the order fulfillment rate, and the shorter the order cycle time. In other words, information sharing may reduce the demand uncertainty that firms normally encounter. Firms that share information between trading partners tend to transact with a reduced number of suppliers. In sum, this work illustrates the effects of various levels of information sharing on supply chain performance in electronic commerce.     

Computation of full-vector modes for bending waveguide using cylindrical perfectly matched layers

A new full-vector approach to calculate leaky modes on three-dimensional bending waveguides is developed and demonstrated with the help of the cylindrical perfectly matched layer (CPML) numerical boundary conditions. By utilizing the complex coordinate stretching technique in the cylindrical system, a new set of full-vector wave equations for the bending waveguide structures are derived for the perfectly matched layer regions. Numerical solutions by the finite-difference schemes for the new wave equations are shown to yield highly accurate complex propagation constants (e.g., the bending-induced phase shifts and leakage losses) and modal field patterns, due primarily to the effective CPML.
