During the measurement, HgCdTe diode arrays with different diode pitches were frontside illuminated by a He-Ne laser at liquid nitrogen temperature and room temperature. The experimental results show that crosstalk between the nearest neighboring diodes decreases exponentially as the diode pitch increases, and the factors that affect the obtained crosstalk are presented and analyzed. Crosstalk out of the nominal diode area (optically sensitive area) is also measured and discussed.展开更多

However, fabrication of large-area organic micro-/nanocrystal arrays with consistent crystal growth direction has posed a significant technical challenge. Here, we describe a solution-processed dip-coating technique to grow large-area, aligned 9,10-bis(phenylethynyl) anthracene(BPEA) and 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene(TIPSPEN) single-crystalline nanoribbon arrays. The method is scalable to a 5 9 10 cm^2 wafer substrate, with around 60% of the wafer surface covered by aligned crystals. The quality of crystals can be easily controlled by tuning the dip-coating speed. Furthermore, OFETs based on well-aligned BPEA and TIPS-PEN single-crystalline nanoribbons were constructed.By optimizing channel lengths and using appropriate metallic electrodes, the BPEA and TIPS-PEN-based OFETs showed hole mobility exceeding 2.0 cm^2V^(-1)s^(-1)(average mobility 1.2 cm^2V^(-1)s^(-1)) and 3.0 cm^2V^(-1)s^(-1)(average mobility2.0 cm^2V^(-1)s^(-1)), respectively. They both have a high on/off ratio(I_(on)/I_(off))>10~9. The performance can well satisfy the requirements for light-emitting diodes driving.展开更多

Conventi...Robotic radiosurgery/Radiotherapy is increasingly adopted in clinics, and quality assurance (QA) of CyberKnife’s variable-aperture Iris<sup>TM</sup> collimators requires sub-millimeter precision. Conventional film-based QA for the 12 Iris<sup>TM</sup> cone sizes (ranging from 5 to 60 mm) is both time consuming (120 minutes for all or 30 minutes for 3 cone sizes) and highly experience dependent. To improve the efficiency, a high-resolution 2D diode detector array, sampling every 2.5 mm, was evaluated for Iris<sup>TM</sup> aperture size QA. This study focused on a spatial frequency analysis, a dose profile reconstruction, and a sensitivity study to beam size variances. Dose profiles of the 12 cones scanned with a high-resolution diode in a water tank were utilized as the gold standard for comparison. Spatial Fourier transform of these profiles were analyzed to explore applicable sampling frequency. Next, the dose profiles were artificially sampled with a 2.5 mm gap, and then interpolated using a Python-based cubic B-spline. Finally, sensitivity of the diode array system to various field sizes was measured by changing source to detector distance. We found, utilizing the diodes system, QA time was reduced to less than 10 minutes. Spatial frequency of the dose profile showed little contribution beyond 0.2 mm<sup>-1</sup>, so a Nyquist sampling of 0.4 mm<sup>-1</sup> is appropriate for dose verification, corresponding to a 2.5 mm gap. Dose profiles were reconstructed using Cubic B-spline with good agreements to nominal for cones 7.5 mm and larger. The measured Iris<sup>TM</sup> size using the SRS MapCheck had a standard error of ±0.12 mm. Primarily, the 2D Diode array with a spatial resolution 0.4 mm<sup>-1</sup> is appropriate for dose verification for these cones above 7.5 mm, and its application would substantially improve Iris<sup>TM</sup> QA efficiency.展开更多

By the infrared radiation, the infrared focal plane can produces small voltage signals. For the traditional readout circuit structures are designed to process current signals, they cannot be applied to it. In this paper, a new readout circuit for the diode un-cooled infrared focal plane array is developed. The principle of detector array signal readout and small signal amplification is given in detail. The readout circuit is designed and simulated by using the Central Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (CSMC) 0.5 μm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor (CMOS) technology library. Cadence Spectre simulation results show that the scheme can be applied to the CMOS readout integrated circuit (ROIC) with a larger array, such as 320×240 size array.展开更多

The temperature pattern of the laser diode mini-array packaged in a TO-can is analyzed and optimized to achieve a uniform temperature distribution among the laser stripes and along the cavity direction. The temperature among the laser stripes varies by more than 5 K if the stripes are equally arranged, and can be reduced to less than 0.4 K if proper arrangement is designed. For conventional submount structure, the temperature variation along the cavity direction is as high as 7 K, while for an optimized trapezoid submount structure, the temperature varies only within 0.5 K.展开更多

Methods: The recommended density value of 1.18 g/cm3 for Acuros XB and X-ray voxel Monte Carlo was assigned to ArcCHECK on CT images. A total of 45 simple plans, including a 1-field plan, a 3-field plan, a 4-field plan, a half-arc plan from 270° to 90°, and a full-arc plan, were assessed. Subsequently, the patient-specific 96 IMRT and VMAT plans were evaluated. Gamma analysis with a 3% normalized global dose error and a 3 mm distance-to-agreement criteria (γ3%G/3mm) was performed in the Dw and Dm. The change in γ3%G/3mm between Dw and Dm were statistically analyzed using JMPPro11 software. Results: The median values of γ3%G/3mm for all simple plans for Dw and Dm were 98.1% (range, 75.2% - 100%) and 95.5% (range, 23.7% - 100%), respectively (p 0.01). In the patient-specific IMRT and VMAT plans, the median values of γ3%G/3mm for Dw and Dm were 98.6% (range, 90.1% - 100%) and 90.5% (range, 38.5% - 97.2%), respectively (p 0.01). Conclusion: Our results showed that the calculated and measured dose distributions were in good agreement for Dw, but were not for Dm. From the viewpoint of the rationale of dosimetry, Dw shows better agreement with measured dose distribution when using the fixedphantom density recommended by the vendor.展开更多
