An integrated multichannel wavelength monitoring circuit using specially designed phased-array waveguide grating and detector arrays, which monitors all wavelength-division multiplexing channels in real-time (sixteen channels at 200-GHz spacing), has been demonstrated with /spl sim/0.02 nm accuracy.
We developed an alternate method for density-based load estimation and applied it to estimate hip joint load distributions for two femora. Two-dimensional finite element models were constructed from single energy quan...

In this article, we have studied the role of photoeffects in the formation of aluminum back surface field (BSF) contacts on p-type silicon wafers by using different lamp configurations in rapid thermal processing (RTP). Use of photons of wavelengths less than 800 nm in conjunction with infrared and visible photons in RTP resulted in the reduction of processing time from 202 to 138 s and the processing temperature from 890 to 850 °C. The reduction in the overall thermal budget used for BSF contact formation is a direct result of photon assisted RTP. The availability of a large number of high energy photons on the metal surface also resulted in improved electrical, structural and mechanical properties of the processed device.

We address the problem of efficient circuit switching in wide area networks. The solution provided is based on finding optimal routes for lightpaths and semilightpaths. A lightpath is a fully optical transmission path, while a semilightpath is a transmission path constructed by chaining several lightpaths together, using wavelength conversion at their junctions. The problem thus is to find an optimal lightpath/semilightpath in the network in terms of the cost of wavelength conversion and the cost of using the wavelengths on links. We first present fast, efficient algorithms both for the general problem and for a natural restricted version. The new algorithms outperform earlier work, providing time improvements amounting to an almost linear time factor in most cases. Also, all our algorithms can be implemented on the network in a distributed way.

The use of tungsten halogen lamps and the deuterium lamp as the source of thermal and optical energies has been exploited to deposit thin films of Ta2O5 on Si and conducting substrates, The leakage current densities are as low as 10(-10) A/cm(2) for gate voltage under 5V. Photons in visible, ultraviolet, and vacuum ultraviolet (lambda < 800 nm) regions provide higher bulk and surface diffusion coefficients as well as reduced activation energy for the chemical process involved in the chemical vapor deposition process. The low thermal mass of the substrate provides limited reaction processing capability. The photochemical and photophysical processes allow the participating atoms and molecules to adjust their bond geometries and occupy sites which result in overall reduction of stress and strain energy and provide materials with overall low microscopic defects at low processing temperature and with high throughput. New experimental results of Al-Ta2O5-Si3N4-poly Si-Al structure are presented. The leakage current-voltage characteristics are better than those reported by other researchers.

Thin films of Al-1.27 wt %Y were deposited by dc magnetron sputtering. Adding yttrium to the aluminum drastically reduced the metal’s grain size and also improve the uniformity of grain size distribution. Upon annealing at a temperature of 450 °C for 30 min, grain growth was insignificant, while the electrical resistance dropped from 6.05 to 2.95 μΩ cm. The as deposited films consisted of Al4Y and α-Al supersaturated with yttrium. After annealing, β-Al3Y precipitated instead of α-Al3Y. The Al–Y films had much higher resistance to hillock formation than did Al-1 wt %Si films.
