Good uniformity is observed over 75mm HgCdTe epilayers,and the deviation in cutoff wavelength is within 0. 1μm at 80K. A variety of surface defects are observed and the formation mechanism is discussed. The average density of surface defects in 75mm HgCdTe epiluyers is found to be less than 300cm^-2. It is found that the surface sticking coefficient of As during HgCdTe growth is very low and is sensitive to growth temperature, being only -1 × 10^-4 at 170℃. The activation energy of As in HgCdTe was determined to be 19.5meV,which decreases as (Na - Nd)^1/3 with a slope of 3.1 × 10^-5 meV · cm. The diffusion coefficients of As in HgCdTe of 1.0 ± 0,9 × 10^-16,8 ± 3 × 10^- is, and 1.5 ± 0.9 × 10^-13 cm^2/s are obtained at temperatures of 240,380, and 440℃, respectively under Hg-saturated pressure.

The choice of MMPP is motivated by its ability to capture the variability and correlation in moderate time scales while being analytically tractable. Important statistics of traffic burstiness are described and a customized moment-based fitting procedure of MMPP to traffic traces is presented. Our methodology of doing this is to examine whether the MMPP can be used to predict the performance of a queue to which MMPP sample paths and measured traffic traces are fed for comparison respectively, in addition to the goodness-of-fit test of MMPP. Numerical results and simulations show that the fitted MMPP can approximate multifractal traffic quite well, i.e. accurately predict the queueing performance.展开更多

Factors, such as travel time, fixed charge and traffic congestion which affect road users' choices of trip paths, are analyzed. Travelers usually decide their trip paths based on their personal habits, preferences and the information at hand. By considering both deterministic and stochastic factors which affect the value of time (VOT) during the process of path choosing, a variational inequality model is proposed to describe the problem of traffic assignment. A lazy loading algorithm for traffic assignment is designed to solve the proposed model, and the calculation steps are given. Numerical experiment results show that compared with the all-or-nothing assignment, the proposed model and the algorithm can provide more optimal traffic assignments for road networks. The results of this study can be used to optimize traffic planning and management.展开更多
