Effect of Topological Connectivity on Firing Pattern Transitions in Coupled Neurons

By using the coupled model of Hindmarsh-Rose neuronal systems, we numerically investigate the effect of topology structures on the firing patterns transition （FPT）. A four-cell coupled system with all possible configurations are studied. We select the membrane current Iext as a controllable parameter, and set it to be near the left side for one of the bifurcation points. It is found that to have a response from some external stimuli with the proper amplitude and frequencies, the transition will appear between different firing states only when the cells in the system are coupled with some proper topological structures, which implies the occurrence of FPT induced by the configuration in the coupled system. Similar FPT phenomena could also be observed in a five-cell coupled system. Fbrthermore, we find that such transition behaviors may have some inherent relevance with the synchronization error and the average connective number among cells in the coupled system for different topology structures. These results suggest that the biological neuron systems may achieve an effective response to the external feeble stimulus by selecting the proper configuration and using the corresponding transition mode.     

Nonlinear Polarization Rotation-Based Mode-Locked Erbium-Doped Fiber Laser with Three Switchable Operation States

A simple mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser （EDFL） with three switchable operation states is proposed and demonstrated based on nonlinear polarization rotation. The EDFL generates a stable square pulse at a third harmonic pulse repetition rate of 87kHz as the 1480 nm pump power increases from the threshold of 17.5 m W to 34.3mW. The square pulse duration increases from 105 ns to 245ns as the pump power increases within this region. The pulse operation switches to the second operation state as the pump power is varied from 48.2mW to l16.Tm W. The laser operates at a fundamental repetition rate of 29 kHz with a fixed pulse width of 8.5 μs within the pump power region. At a pump power of ll6.TmW, the average output power is 3.84mW, which corresponds to the pulse energy of 131.5 ng. When the pump power continues to increase, the pulse train experiences unstable oscillation before it reaches the third stable operation state within a pump power region of 138.9 m W to 145.0 m W. Within this region, the EDFL produces a fixed pulse width of 2.8 μs and a harmonic pulse repetition rate of 58 kHz.     

Tunneling in submicron CMOS single-photon avalanche diodes

Tunneling is studied in two main single-photon avalanche diode （SPAD） topologies, which are r~-tub guard ring （NTGR） and p-tub guard ring （PTGR）. Device sinmlation, I - V measurements, and dark count calculations and measurements demonstrate that tunneling is the main source of noise in NTGR, but it is less dominant in PTGR SPADs. All structures are characterized with respect to dark noise, photon detection probability, tinting jitter, afterpulsing probability, and breakdown voltage. Noise performmme is disturbed because of tunneling, whereas jitter performance is disturbed because of the short diffusion time of photo-generated minority carriers in NTGR SPADs. The maximum photon detection probability is enhanced because of an improvement in absorption thickness.     

A fast-response in-plane switching liquid crystal display with a protrusion structure

The widespread use and application of in-plane switching liquid crystal displays （IPS-LCDs） is limited by their slow response. In this letter, a fast-response IPS-LCD with a protrusion structure is proposed. The gray-to-gray response time of the IPS-LCD is reduced by 20% to 30%. The difference in cell gap induced by the protrusion accounts for the faster response. Moreover, the viewing angle and ganmla shift of tile proposed IPS-LCD are simulated and found to be better than that of conventional IPS-LCDs.
