Influence of lattice self-heating and hot-carrier transport ondevice performance

As device technologies improve, the traditional drift-diffusion transport model becomes inadequate to predict the performance of state-of-the-art semiconductor devices. The reasons are believed to be the larger field and field gradient inside advanced devices which cause lattice heating and hot carrier nonlocal transport phenomena. For more accurate prediction on device performance, a new device simulator capable of full thermodynamic simulation was developed. The carrier and carrier energy transport equations are directly derived from the Boltzmann transport equation, and the energy transfer among electrons, holes and crystal lattice takes into account most of the possible mechanisms. This simulator was used to simulate the DC behavior of a BJT and a half-micron NMOS. The simulation results show that for advanced devices, not only the drift-diffusion model becomes inadequate, but including only one of the two thermal effects results in error in simulated device characteristics

A segmentation-based lossless image coding method forhigh-resolution medical image compression

Lossless compression techniques are essential in archival and communication of medical images. Here, a new segmentation-based lossless image coding (SLIC) method is proposed, which is based on a simple but efficient region growing procedure. The embedded region growing procedure produces an adaptive scanning pattern for the image with the help of a very-few-bits-needed discontinuity index map. Along with this scanning pattern, an error image data part with a very small dynamic range is generated. Both the error image data and the discontinuity index map data parts are then encoded by the Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group (JBIG) method. The SLIC method resulted in, on the average, lossless compression to about 1.6 b/pixel from 8 b, and to about 2.9 b/pixel from 10 b with a database of ten high-resolution digitized chest and breast images. In comparison with direct coding by JBIG, Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), hierarchical interpolation (HINT), and two-dimensional Burg prediction plus Huffman error coding methods, the SLIC method performed better by 4% to 28% on the database used     

Multiresolution learning paradigm and signal prediction

Current neural network learning processes, regardless of the learning algorithm and preprocessing used, are sometimes inadequate for difficult problems. We present a new learning concept and paradigm for neural networks, called multiresolution learning, based on multiresolution analysis in wavelet theory. The multiresolution learning paradigm can significantly improve the generalization performance of neural networks

Synthesis of new thermosetting poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide)s containing epoxide pendant groups

A new class of thermosetting poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide)s containing pendant epoxide groups were synthesized and characterized. These new epoxy polymers were prepared through the bromination of poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) in halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons followed by a Wittig reaction to yield vinyl‐substituted polymer derivatives. The treatment of the vinyl‐substituted polymers with m‐chloroperbenzoic acid led to the formation of epoxidized poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) with variable pendant ratios, and the structures and properties were studied with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and gel permeation chromatography. The ratios of pendant functional groups were tailored for the polymer properties, and the results showed that the glass‐transition temperatures increased as the benzylic protons were replaced by bromo‐, vinyl‐, or epoxide‐functional groups, whereas the thermal stability decreased in comparison with the original polymer. Within a molar fraction of 20–50%, the degree of functionalization had little effect on the glass‐transition temperature; however, it correlated inversely with the thermal stability of each functionalized polymer. The thermal curing behavior of the epoxide‐functionalized polymer was enhanced by the increment of the pendant functionality, which resulted in a significant increase in the glass‐transition temperature as well as the thermal stability after the curing reaction. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
