Detection of OFDM Signals in Fast-Varying Channels With Low-Density Pilot Symbols

In fast-varying channels, an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing system needs to insert denser pilot symbols among transmitted symbols in tracking the variation of a channel. However, using denser pilot symbols reduces transmission throughput. In this paper, we propose a pseudopilot algorithm for data detection in fast-varying channels without increasing the pilot density. Our algorithm is based on a regressional model-based least-squares-fitting approach. Within a block of received symbols, we select some data symbols and regard them as pseudopilot symbols. The receiver considers all the possible patterns of the pseudopilots and associates each of them with a data sequence and a corresponding metric. The associated data sequence, whose metric is minimum, is selected as the detected data sequence. Our algorithm is not based on a decision-directed or decision-feedback architecture because the pseudopilots do not come from any detected symbols. The proposed algorithm needs to search all the possible patterns of the pseudopilots, and the complexity may increase with the number of pseudopilots and constellation size. To reduce the number of search, we further propose two modified approaches. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithms could approach a bit-error probability lower bound that is obtained by letting the receiver know the true values of the pseudopilots. Compared with the linear interpolation method, the proposed algorithm shows obvious improvement in fast-varying channels. The proposed modified approaches could also effectively reduce the number of search while maintaining the performance. We also give the complexity analysis of the proposed algorithm and an approach to determine the degree of the regression polynomial.

Avalanche buildup time of an InP/InGaAsP/InGaAs APD at high gain

Under a high-gain operating condition, the presence of a multiplication process in the InGaAs(P) regions of an InP/InGaAsP/InGaAs avalanche photodiode (APD) having a structure of separated absorption and multiplication regions could lead to significant enhancement of the avalanche buildup time. As a result, the bandwidth of the device could be reduced considerably. The dependence of the avalanche multiplication factor and the intrinsic response time on the reverse bias voltage, the heterointerface field, the doping concentrations, and the width of the InP layer is examined in detail for the case in which hole injection is assumed. It is shown, for example, that for a fixed value of doping concentrations, reduction of the excess noise factor and enhancement of the gain-bandwidth product of the device can be achieved at the same time by a proper increase of the width of the InP layer     

Structural and Passivative Behaviors of Cu(In) Thin Film

This investigation prepares a low-resistivity and self-passivated Cu(In) thin film. The dissociation behaviors of dilute Cu-alloy thin films, containing 1.5–5at.%In, were prepared on glass substrates by a cosputter deposition, and were subsequently annealed in the temperature range of 200–600 °C for 10–30 min. Thus, self-passivated Cu thin films in the form In₂O₃/Cu/SiO₂ were obtained by annealing Cu(In) alloy films at an elevated temperature. Structural analysis indicated that only strong copper diffraction peaks were detected from the as-deposited film, and an In₂O₃ phase was formed on the surface of the film by annealing the film at an elevated temperature under oxygen ambient. The formation of In₂O₃/Cu/SiO₂ improved the resistivity, adhesion to SiO₂, and passivative capability of the studied film. A dramatic reduction in the resistivity of the film occurred at 500 °C, and was considered to be associated with preferential indium segregation during annealing, yielding a low resistivity below 2.92 μΩcm. The results of this study can be potentially exploited in the application of thin-film transistor–liquid crystal display gate electrodes and copper metallization in integrated circuits.     

Corrosion behavior of pure tin deposit under 55 °C/85 % RH reliability test

With recent moves to implement lead-free manufacturing in the electronics industry, more attention is being paid to the use of tin. One of greatest limitations regarding the reliability of tin is the undesirable development of tin whiskers. Many factors have been identified as being the cause of these whiskers, though tin corrosion has not. Three types of tin deposit grain structures have been developed in an effort to reduce the growth of whisker formations as type (A) with vertical and regular grain boundary; type (B) with horizontal and irregular grain boundary; and type (C) as a combination of both vertical (the top layer) and horizontal (the bottom layer) grain structures. We kept a series of samples in an oven for 1 year at 55 °C/85 % RH (relative humidity), and then used focused ion beam to examine the corrosion microstructure that occurred three types of deposit structures. We found the preferred path of corrosion to occur along the grain boundary and that tin oxide enlarges the volume of the deposit. In order to release the compressive stress that developed during corrosion, whiskers were formed as the grain structure being vertical. Corrosion developed in different locations of various deposits made of the three grain structures. We studied resulting in whisker growth, cracking and the development of internal oxide.     

Synthesis of UV-curable silane-coupling agent as an adhesion promoter

In color filter industry, a problem was found that the adhesion strength between glass substrate and black matrix was largely decreased after ITO sputtering process. In order to solve this problem, a new UV-curable silane-coupling agent (UV-SCA) was synthesized to be an adhesion promoter, which was synthesized by the reaction between the hydroxyl group of bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate and the isocyanate group of 3-(isocyanatopropyl)-triethoxysilane. The adhesion strength between glass substrate and black film, which was prepared from the carbon black photo-resist with or without the addition of UV-SCA, was determined by a tensile/compression strength tester, and the effect of UV-SCA on the adhesion strength before and after ITO sputtering process was also discussed.     

DNA molecule stretching through thermo-electrophoresis and thermal convection in a heated converging-diverging microchannel

A novel DNA molecule stretching technique is developed and tested herein. Through a heated converging-diverging microchannel, thermal convection and thermophoresis induced by regional heating are shown to significantly elongate single DNA molecules; they are visualized via a confocal laser scanning microscopy. In addition, electrophoretic stretching is also implemented to examine the hybrid effect on the conformation and dynamics of single DNA molecules. The physical properties of the DNA molecules are secured via experimental measurements.     

Hydrophilic polystyrene/maleic anhydride ultrafine fibrous membranes

Polystyrene/maleic anhydride (PSMA) was synthesized to reach a viscosity‐average molecular weight of 700 kDa and fabricated into ultrafine fibrous membranes consisting of fibers with an average diameter of 300 nm. These ultrafine PSMA fibers were rendered insoluble in organic solvents by reactions with hydrazine and ethylenediamine (ED). The highly efficient incorporation of diamines into the fibrous membranes was easily achieved by brief immersions in either dilute (0.5 wt %) hydrazine for 1 min or ED ether solution for 2 min. Heating at 150°C for 5 min produced crosslinked PSMA with very little or no solubility in acetone with the retention of the fibrous membrane structure. The ED‐crosslinked membranes were particularly stable to both bases and acids as well as hydrophilic solvents, had a 46° water contact angle, and absorbed 22 times the amount of water as the as‐spun fibrous membrane. This post‐fiber‐formation crosslinking approach was robust, highly efficient, and fast and required very little crosslinking reagent. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010     

A Bipolar Host Material Containing Triphenylamine and Diphenylphosphoryl‐Substituted Fluorene Units for Highly Efficient Blue Electrophosphorescence

Highly efficient blue electrophosphorescent organic light‐emitting diodes incorporating a bipolar host, 2,7‐bis(diphenylphosphoryl)‐9‐[4‐(N,N‐diphenylamino)phenyl]‐9‐phenylfluorene (POAPF), doped with a conventional blue triplet emitter, iridium(III) bis[(4,6‐difluoro‐phenyl)pyridinato‐N,C^2´]picolinate (FIrpic) are fabricated. The molecular architecture of POAPF features an electron‐donating (p‐type) triphenylamine group and an electron‐accepting (n‐type) 2,7‐bis(diphenyl‐phosphoryl)fluorene segment linked through the sp³‐hybridized C9 position of the fluorene unit. The lack of conjugation between these p‐ and n‐type groups endows POAPF with a triplet energy gap (E_T) of 2.75 eV, which is sufficiently high to confine the triplet excitons on the blue‐emitting guest. In addition, the built‐in bipolar functionality facilitates both electron and hole injection. As a result, a POAPF‐based device doped with 7 wt% FIrpic exhibits a very low turn‐on voltage (2.5 V) and high electroluminescence efficiencies (20.6% and 36.7 lm W^?1). Even at the practical brightnesses of 100 and 1000 cd m^?2, the efficiencies remain high (20.2%/33.8 lm W^?1 and 18.8%/24.3 lm W^?1, respectively), making POAPF a promising material for use in low‐power‐consumption devices for next‐generation flat‐panel displays and light sources.
