We have studied the fine structure polarization splitting of exciton emission lines related to isoelectronic centers in an nitrogen-doped GaAs. The nitrogen doping has been performed in atomically controlled way using the (3×3) nitrogen stable surface of GaAs(001), which forms a series of distinct, strong, narrow bandwidth luminescence lines. The localized bound excitons have been found to consist of four signals, which can be selected by linear polarization. Magnetic-field-induced change in the splitting shows a quadratic dependence of the bright exciton splitting owing to the in-plane Zeeman interaction. Our calculations of the optical selection characteristics considering both the J−J coupling and local-field effects demonstrate the polarization splitting depending on the symmetry of the isoelectronic center.

The area-I/O flip-chip package provides a high chip-density solution to the demand of more I/Opsilas in VLSI designs; it can achieve smaller package size, shorter wirelength, and better signal and power integrity. In this paper, we introduce the routing problem for chip and package co-design and present the first work in the literature to handle the multiple Re-Distribution Layer (RDL) routing problem for flip-chip designs, considering pin and layer assignment, total wirelength minimization, and chip-package co-design. Our router adopts a two-stage technique of global routing followed by RDL routing. The global routing assigns each block port to a unique bump pad via an I/O pad and decides the RDL routing among I/O pads and bump pads. Based on the minimum-cost maximum-flow algorithm, we can guarantee 100% RDL routing completion after the assignment and the optimal solution with the minimum wirelength. The RDL routing efficiently distributes the routing points between two adjacent bump pads and then generates a 100% routable sequence to complete the routing. Experimental results based on 10 industry designs demonstrate that our router can achieve 100% routability and the optimal routing wirelength under reasonable CPU times, while related works cannot.

We have designed a double-barrier superlattice infrared photodetector (SLIP) which has a superlattice (SL) sandwiched between the thin and thick barriers. Photoelectrons can bounce back and forth between the two barriers and inject through the thin barrier to enhance the photocurrent. However, the supply of electrons is limited by the thick barrier and thus we have to fabricate the emitter contact on the SL. In comparison with the single-barrier SLIP, this structure shows at least one-order higher magnitude of photocurrent at low bias and the associated detectivity is also increased for more than one order. The dramatic increment of the photocurrent is consistent with our design in the detailed analysis. Because it has the optimized performance at low bias, this double-barrier SLIP is suitable for low power consumption applications. Our detector can be operated at 100 K by blocking barriers incorporated into the structure to reduce the dark current.

Conjugated polymers are semiconductors that offer flexibility, simplicity and lower cost in the fabrication of polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs), polymer transistors and circuits, polymer photodetectors and solar cells. They have a potential to lead to a technology that can monolithically integrate all the semiconductor devices mentioned above as well as polymer sensors and actuators. This paper presents a novel method as a post-fabrication treatment and its improvements over the performance of the light emitting and photovoltaic properties of PLEDs. Investigated PLED is made of indium tin oxide (ITO), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), poly[2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) and aluminum (Al). Following fabrication at room conditions, heat treatment is performed at 130Cdeg for one hour and electric field treatment is realized with voltage levels from 0 to -8 V under 0.2 atm vacuum. Heat treatment after fabrication restores the light emitting function of otherwise not functioning PLEDs, which degrade due to exposure to oxygen and water vapors at normal room conditions. Electric field treatment reduces the turn-on voltage of PLEDs when they are used as light emitting devices. Electric field treatment of -1 volt reduces the turn-on voltage to 3 volts from 10 volts, which is the case for the devices with heat treatment only. It also improves open circuit voltages and short circuit currents of PLEDs by an order of magnitude when they are used as photo-detectors or photocells. Devices treated with heat only show a short circuit current of around 0.5 nA and open circuit voltage of 5 mV under 500 mW/m 2 light intensity. These values improve to 5 nA and 55 mV respectively after the devices are electrically treated with -1 volt. Electric field treatment after the thermal treatment also improves the stability and uniformity of the devices.

The piezoelectric properties of PMN-PT ceramics with compositions near a morphotropic phase boundary were investigated under pressures p upto 150 MPa. The resonance and antiresonance frequency characteristics of impedance and phase in the k31mode in the tetragonal phase for PMNT (67/33) and in the rhombohedral one for PMNT (69/31) ceramics were observed under various pressures. The resonance frequency fr remains almost constant and antiresonance one fa tends to increase with increasing p. The electromechanical coupling coefficient k31 in the k31 mode increases and the electromechanical quality factor Q decreases with increasing p. The decrease in Q with p is due to ferroelectric domain wall motions. The relative permittivity r increases with increasing p. Such an increase in both k and Εr dependent on p seems to be related to the decrease in ferroelectric domain size.

We report the zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires with ultra-thin seed layer by low-cost hydrothermal method. The ultra-thin seed layer consists of ZnO thin film, which is fabricated by sol-gel method and then etched to reduce the thickness by diluted HCI. The resistance along the vertical direction of the ultra-thin seed layer on the indium tin oxide (ITO) glass decreases during the etching process. ZnO nanowires with low resistance in the vertical direction are expected to enable the application of optoelectronic device with better performance.

Video frame rate up conversion (FRUC) has many applications, especially it has been proved to effectively reduce the motion blur problem and improve the visual quality on LCD. In this paper, we propose a global-to-local iterative algorithm to resolve the problems occurring in the existing block based algorithms. In addition, the iterative approach, where interpolated blocks are generated in confident order, is employed in order to find the applying order and combination of different motion compensated interpolation(MCI) algorithms. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other MCI algorithms in perceptual and can generate smooth high quality interpolated frames.
