However, channel errors will degrade the performance of imaging. This paper compares the performances of four channel error estimation algorithms under different clutter distributions and SNR conditions. Further, explanations are given for performance differences of the four algorithms, which provide evidence for method selection in engineering applications.展开更多
Strain and stress were simulated using finite element method(FEM)for threeⅢ-V-on-Insulator(Ⅲ-VOI)structures,i.e.,InP/SiO2/Si,InP/Al2O3/SiO2/Si,and GaAs/Al2O3/SiO2/Si,fabricated by ion-slicing as the substrates for o...Strain and stress were simulated using finite element method(FEM)for threeⅢ-V-on-Insulator(Ⅲ-VOI)structures,i.e.,InP/SiO2/Si,InP/Al2O3/SiO2/Si,and GaAs/Al2O3/SiO2/Si,fabricated by ion-slicing as the substrates for optoelectronic devices on Si.The thermal strain/stress imposes no risk for optoelectronic structures grown on InPOI at a normal growth temperature using molecular beam epitaxy.Structures grown on GaAsOI are more dangerous than those on InPOI due to a limited critical thickness.The intermedia Al2O3 layer was intended to increase the adherence while it brings in the largest risk.The simulated results reveal thermal stress on Al2O3 over 1 GPa,which is much higher than its critical stress for interfacial fracture.InPOI without an Al2O3 layer is more suitable as the substrate for optoelectronic integration on Si.展开更多
