A new optimal digital halftoning technique based on the discrete cosine transform

Digital halftoning is a technique to display a gray-level image with a bilevel device. Conventionally, most halftoning techniques are done in the spatial domain. A new halftoning technique based on the discrete cosine transform is proposed. The method chooses an optimal bilevel image to display the original gray-level image and minimize the weighted mean square error based on the discrete cosine transform domain. The simulation results indicate that our algorithm can produce very good halftoned images without false contours.     

A 0.7-2-GHz self-calibrated multiphase delay-locked loop

A 0.7-2-GHz precise multiphase delay-locked loop (DLL) using a digital calibration circuit is presented. Incorporating with the proposed digital calibration circuit, the mismatch-induced timing error among multiphase clocks in the proposed DLL can be self-calibrated. When the calibration procedure is finished, the digital calibration circuit can be turned off automatically to save power dissipations and reduce noise generations. A start controlled circuit is proposed to enlarge the operating frequency range of the DLL. Both the start-controlled circuit and the calibration circuit require an external reset signal to ensure the correctness of the calibration after temperature,operating frequency, and power supply voltage are settled. This DLL with the digital calibration circuit has been fabricated in a 0.18-/spl mu/m CMOS process. The measured results show the DLL exhibits a lock range of 0.7-2 GHz while the peak-to-peak jitter and rms jitter is 18.9ps and 2.5 ps at 2 GHz, respectively. When the calibration procedure is completed and the DLL operates at 1 GHz, the maximum mismatch-induced timing error among multiphase clocks is reduced from 20.4 ps (7.34 degree) to 3.5 ps (1.26 degree).     

Field Emission and Cathodoluminescence of ZnS Hexagonal Pyramids of Zinc Blende Structured Single Crystals

Single‐crystal hexagonal pyramids of zinc blende ZnS are fabricated by facile thermal evaporation in an ammonia atmosphere at 1150 °C. It is found that ZnS pyramids grow along the [111] crystal axis and possess a sharp tip with a diameter of ～10 nm and a micrometer‐sized base. The structural model and growth mechanism are proposed based on crystallographic characteristics. This unique ZnS pyramid structure exhibits a low turn‐on field (2.81 V µm^?1), a high field‐enhancement factor (over 3000), a large field‐emission current density (20 mA cm^?2), and good stability with very small fluctuation (0.9%). These superior field‐emission properties are clearly attributed to the pyramid morphology, with micrometer‐sized bases and nanotips, and high crystallinity. Moreover, a stable UV emission of 337 nm at room temperature is observed and can be ascribed to the band emission of the zinc blende phase. These results suggest that the ZnS hexagonal pyramids can be expected to find promising applications as field emitters and optoelectronic devices.     

Rational Design of Charge‐Neutral,Near‐Infrared‐Emitting Osmium(II) Complexes and OLED Fabrication

A new series of charge neutral Os(II) isoquinolyl triazolate complexes ( 1 – 4 ) with both trans and cis arrangement of phosphine donors are synthesized, and their structural, electrochemical and photophysical properties are established. In sharp contrast to the cis‐arranged complexes 2 – 4 , the trans derivative 1 , which shows a planar arrangement of chromophoric N‐substituted chelates, offers the most effective extended π‐delocalization and hence the lowest excited state energy gap. These complexes exhibit phosphorescence with peak wavelengths ranging from 692–805 nm in degassed CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature. Near‐infrared (NIR)‐emitting electroluminescent devices employing 6 wt % of 1 (or 4 ) doped in Alq₃ host material are successfully fabricated. The devices incorporating 1 as NIR phosphor exhibit fairly intense emission with a peak wavelength at 814 nm. Forward radiant emittance reaches as high as 65.02 µW cm^?2, and a peak EQE of ～1.5% with devices employing Alq₃, TPBi and/or TAZ as electron‐transporting/exciton‐blocking layers. Upon switching to phosphor 4 , the electroluminescence blue shifts to 718 nm, while the maximum EQE and radiance increase to 2.7% and 93.26 (μW cm^?2) respectively. Their performances are optimized upon using TAZ as the electron transporting and exciton‐blocking material. The OLEDs characterized represent the only NIR‐emitting devices fabricated using charge‐neutral and volatile Os(II) phosphors via thermal vacuum deposition.     

Discrimination of breast cancer by measuring prostate-specific antigen levels in women's serum

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been reported to be a potential biomarker of breast cancer. Serum PSA of normal women is around 1 pg/mL, which is usually undetectable by current assay methods; thus an ultrasensitive measurement of PSA expression in women's serum is necessary to distinguish normal from malignant breast diseases. To enhance the sensitivity of conventional immunoassay technology for the detection of PSA in sera, we adopted a localized surface plasmon coupled fluorescence fiber-optic biosensor, which combines a sandwich immunoassay with the localized surface plasmon technique. The concentration of total PSA (t-PSA) (from 0.1 to 1000 pg/mL) in phosphate-buffered saline solution and the normalized fluorescence signal exhibit a linear relationship where the correlation coefficient is 0.9574. In addition, the concentration of additional t-PSA in 10-fold-diluted healthly women's serum across a similar range was measured. The correlation coefficient for this measurement is 0.9142. In clinical serum samples, moreover, the experimental results of t-PSA detection show that both the mean value and median of normalized fluorescence signals in the breast cancer group (155.2 and 145.7, respectively) are higher than those in the noncancer group (46.6 and 37.1, respectively). We also examined the receiver operating characteristic curve for t-PSA, and the area under the curve (AUC) is estimated to be 0.9063, the AUC being used to measure the performance of a test to correctly identify diseased and nondiseased subjects.     

Physicochemical properties and osteogenic activity of radiopaque calcium silicate–gelatin cements

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the physicochemical properties and in vitro osteogenic activity of radiopaque calcium silicate–gelatin cements. The radiopacity, setting time, working time, flow, diametral tensile strength, pH value, washout resistance and morphology of the cements with gelatin (0, 5 and 10 % by weight) were measured, which compared to a popular endodontic material, ProRoot white-colored mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA). The cell morphology, cell attachment and proliferation, alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin levels on the cements were measured by culturing the specimens with dental pulp cells. The results indicated that the presence of gelatin significantly (P < 0.05) reduced radiopacity and diametral tensile strength and prolonged setting time. Nevertheless, the 5 wt% gelatin cement had a radiopacity (5.1 mm of Al thickness) higher than ISO 6876:2001 standards (3 mm of Al thickness). The setting time (33 min), working time (9 min) and flow value (17.4 mm) of the 5 wt% gelatin cement were significantly (P < 0.05) better than those of WMTA (corresponding 165, 6 min and 14.2 mm). The fresh WMTA completely degraded after soaking in a physiological solution for 1 h, while the gelatin cements resisted washout, showing no noticeable breakdown even after 1 day of soaking. The gelatin cement enhanced the higher expression of cell attachment, proliferation and differentiation as compared to WMTA. It was concluded that the 5 wt% gelatin–calcium silicate hybrid cement appears to be promising as a radiopaque biomaterial for medical applications such as endodontics and vertebroplasty.     

Improvement of the Q-factor,for an adjustable inductor using a 90-μm silicon substrate on plastic

This article presents a four-port adjustable inductor with 0.18?µm Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology on plastic. The inductor has a high Q-factor and a small size for multiband UWB applications. When the four-port adjustable inductor, on VLSI-standard Si substrate, operates near 3, 4, 7.5 and 9?GHz, it has a Q-factor of 6.5, 6.7, 8 and 11.5 and an inductance of 2.1, 1.6, 1.1, 0.6?nH, respectively. Reducing the thickness of the Si substrate to 90?µm and mounting it on plastic causes a 25–31% improvement in the Q-factor, without change in the inductance, due to a reduction in the parasitic effect from the Si substrate. This is useful for multiband applications.
