Radiative heat transfer analysis in pure water heater used for semiconductor processing

A simplified one-dimensional model is presented to analyze the non-gray radiative transfer in pure water heater used in the rinsing processes within semiconductor production lines, and the ray-tracing method is extended to simulate the radiative heat transfer. To examine the accuracy of the simplified model, the distribution of radiation absorption is determined by the ray-tracing method based the simplified model and compared with the data obtained by three-dimensional non-gray model in combination with Monte Carlo method in reference, and the effects of the water thickness on the radiation absorption are analyzed. The results show that the simplified model has a good accuracy in solving the radiation absorption in the pure water heater. The radiation absorption increases with the water thickness, but when the water thickness is greater than , the radiation absorption increases very slowly with the water thickness.     

计算机辅助彩色立体图像生成中的误差分析与处理

柱透镜光栅的计算机辅助立体成像的基本原理是将二维序列图像进行切分和重组,使之以三维模型的形式展现,使合成的图像在柱透镜光栅下观察时具有"纵深感"。该项技术在广告、摄影、电影制作中具有广泛的应用。但是长期以来,在图像切分时并不能保证像素一定被整除,这意味着剩余像素的出现,合成的立体图像必然存在误差。如何处理剩余像素的问题一直是个难题,阻碍了该技术的推广。针对立体图像生成方法中的剩余像素问题,详尽地分析了误差的形成,并提出了强行取整算法和误差分散算法两种误差处理方法。实验表明,这两种算法能较好的处理剩余像素,增强了合成图像的立体效果,这将有助于立体成像技术的进一步推广。

Quantitative surface analysis performed with an imaging photoelectron spectrometer

The paper gives an outline of the basic principle of our imaging technique for XPS. The advantage of the concept is its excellent applicability to quantitative pixel information. This idea is verified by two examples which are representative for routine problems in XPS. These are quantitative surface analysis and determination of overlayer thicknesses. A lateral resolution of at least 0.2 mm is achieved and thus a pixel size of 0.2 mm × 0.2 mm can be quantified automatically by means of numerical algorithms without need of reference samples.Dedicated to Professor Günther Tölg on the occasion of his 60th birthday     

Multipeak solutions to the Bahri-Coron problem in domains with a shrinking hole

We construct positive and sign changing multipeak solutions to the pure critical exponent problem in a bounded domain with a shrinking hole, having a peak which concentrates at some point inside the shrinking hole (i.e. outside the domain) and one or more peaks which concentrate at interior points of the domain. These are, to our knowledge, the first multipeak solutions in a domain with a single small hole.     

Ultrasonic characterization of point defects induced by cross slip under pure shear

Longitudinal wave velocity is used to characterize the point defects in crystalline solids. High purity Al single crystal was selected for both the finite element analysis and experimental work. Since the jog motions of dislocations caused by intersected slides such as cross slips induce point defects, the total amount of cross slips was calculated instead of calculating directly from the point defects. The effect of crystal orientations on total amount of cross slips under pure shear was also investigated via the finite element method. The result suggest that if the initial shear stress direction is located at the inner side of stereographic triangle, only single slip activities occurred at the beginning of plastic deformation and no effects due to point defects were present. However, as the shear stress direction rotates along the slip direction, point defects are induced by cross slips between primary and secondary slip systems due to work-hardening. This phenomenon was then examined by measuring longitudinal wave velocity changes propagating in Al single crystal subjected to the combination loads of equi-biaxial tension and compression (a pure shear state). Good qualitative agreement between the finite element result and measured data suggest that the longitudinal wave velocity can be used as an index to characterize point defects in crystalline materials.     

Detection of bio-constituents in complex biological tissue using Raman microscopy. Application to human nail clippings

Raman spectra of human nail clippings from various sources were collected and then deconvoluted to obtain the pure component spectra of the underlying constituents present. This blind-deconvolution was performed using a self-modeling curve resolution technique, namely band-target entropy minimization (BTEM). The aim was to simplify the complexity of the Raman spectra and hence to identify the underlying biological molecules in more detail. BTEM analysis could recover 13 pure component Raman spectral estimates from the collected 438 spectra measured from 113 nail samples. Six recovered pure component spectral estimates correspond to proteins or polypeptides that contain various amino acids such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan, and cysteine. Two are associated with the secondary structures of proteins, and five are associated with two carotenoid species, lipid, ferulic acid, and calcium phosphate. Subsequently, the relative concentrations of these bio-constituents were calculated from the measured mixture spectra and the pure component BTEM estimates. These profiles indicated that the concentrations of some bio-constituents are correlated while others are not. A further analysis using target transformation factor analysis (TTFA) revealed the possible presence of curcumin in the human nails. Since the present approach and analysis is rather general, it might be extended to many other biological tissues in a rather straightforward and similar manner, thus revealing more detailed underlying biochemical information such as biomarkers that may be useful for diagnostic purposes.     

On Kaufmanʼs theorem

Kaufman?s theorem (Kaufman, 1978 [9]) on representing closed linear operators as quotients of bounded operators is given a new constructive proof, and is extended to operators between two Hilbert spaces. Two different definitions of operator quotients existing in the literature are compared.
