Low Area/Power Synthesis Using Hybrid Pass Transistor/CMOS Logic Cells in Standard Cell-Based Design Environment

This brief presents a logic synthesis flow that depends on the popular Synopsys Design Compiler to perform logic translation and minimization based on the standard cell library with both pass transistor logic (PTL) and CMOS logic cells. The hybrid PTL/CMOS logic synthesis can generate appropriate circuits considering various design constraints. The proposed multilevel PTL logic cells are automatically constructed from only a few basic cells. Postlayout simulations with UMC 90-nm technology are presented based on the standard cell library with pure PTL, pure CMOS, or hybrid PTL/CMOS cells. Experimental results show that, in most cases, pure PTL circuits have smaller area and power, whereas CMOS circuits, in general, have smaller delay.      

Fabrication of a 100%fill-factor silicon microlens array

正A simple method has been developed for the fabrication of a silicon microlens array with a 100%fill factor and a smooth configuration.The microlens array is fabricated by using the processes of photoresist(SU8- 2005) spin coating,thermal reflow,thermal treatment and reactive ion etching(RIE).First,a photoresist microlens array on a single-polished silicon substrate is fabricated by both thermal reflow and thermal treatment technologies. A typical microlens has a square bottom with size of 25μm,and the distance between every two adjacent microlenses is 5μm.Secondly,the photoresist microlens array is transferred to the silicon substrate by RIE to fabricate the silicon microlens array.Experimental results reveal that the silicon microlens array could be formed by adjusting the quantities of the reactive ion gases of SF_6 and O_2 to proper values.In this paper,the quantities of SF_6 and O_2 are 60 sccm and 50 sccm,respectively,the corresponding etch ratio of the photoresist and the silicon substrate is 1 to 1.44.The bottom size and height of a typical silicon microlens are 30.1μm and 3μm,respectively. The focal lengths of the microlenses ranged from 15.4 to 16.6μm.

宽带线性调频信号在宽带相控阵雷达宽角扫描应用时,由于天线孔径渡越时间的影响会出现目标距离像的散焦,一种有效的方法是采用少数几个带宽较窄的线性调频信号合成带宽,以满足系统大瞬时带宽的需要。本文先提出了利用少数几个线性调频信号Stretch处理后的信号合成带宽的原理,并针对目标高速运动情况的合成带宽处理方法进行了分析,提出了联合估计目标速度与子脉冲合成带宽的方法。计算机仿真实验表明本文对少数线性调频信号Stretch处理后回波合成带宽是有效的。     

Asymptotic Analysis of Spatially Correlated MIMO Multiple-Access Channels With Arbitrary Signaling Inputs for Joint and Separate Decoding

While the capacity of a single-user, point-to-point, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel has been well known, the achievable capacity of a MIMO channel in the presence of other co-channel users is much less understood. One such important scenario is the multiple-access (MA) channel where communication occurs from many uncoordinated mobile users to a common base station receiver (i.e., multipoint-to-point). Unlike previous studies whose emphases were on the idealized spatially uncorrelated channels with Gaussian signaling inputs from users, this paper derives a general analytical expression for the asymptotic (in the sense of large-system limit) sum-rate of a MIMO-MA system where the transmitters and the receiver can have different spatial correlations, and the users' inputs are not necessarily Gaussian. In addition to the sum-rate formula that assumes optimal joint decoding at the base station, we also derive the asymptotic sum-rate of a more practical system which performs separate decoding (multiuser detection followed by a bank of temporal error-correction decoders). Our analytic formulae are important in that they reveal the sum-rate one's system can achieve given the spatial correlation structures at the transmitters and receiver, and the input signal distributions. For special cases that users are homogeneous or users have Gaussian inputs, our results degenerate to previously published results. Furthermore, through computer simulations, we see that the proposed asymptotic solution gives good estimates for the ergodic sum-rate of the systems even with only a few antenna elements at each transmitter and receiver     

Selective Wavelength Enhanced Photochemical and Photothermal H2 Generation of Classical Oxide Supported Metal Catalyst

Conventional views of constructing simply broadband catalysts for photothermal-enhanced catalysis do not realize that without designating photochemical and photothermal conversion to their optimal working spectra can lead to a performance trade-off. Here, spectrally selective designed photoredox and photothermal heating functions of a classical oxide supported metal catalyst are demonstrated, which exhibits markedly improved hydrogen reactivity. While photothermal hydrogen producing catalysis is previously demonstrated, distinctive wavelength dominant redox and thermal phenomena are not studied due to the complex interdependent behavior they exhibit. The exceptionally high H₂ evolution rate of 30.2 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ (≈74 times that of the control sample) is attributed to the nonoverlapped light absorption and undisrupted charge transfer rationales. This study presents a proof-by-existence that spectrally tailored solar utilization strategy is broadly impactful for the hybrid photothermal–photochemical catalysis. Moreover, the spatially decoupled structural configuration may open up discrete parametric control over photoredox and photoheating functionalities.
