文摘By phenomenologically describing the high-redshift star formation history, i.e., ,ρ.(z) oc [(1 +z)/4.5]-% and semi-analytically calculating the fractions of high-redshift Pop I/II and Pop II! stars, we investigate the contributions from both high-redshfit Pop I/II and Pop II/stars to the observed near-infrared (3 μm 〈// 〈 5 μm) excess in the cosmic infrared background emission. In order to account for the observational level of the near-infrared excess, the power-law index or of the assumed star formation history is constrained to within the range of 0 ≤a≤1. Such a constraint is obtained under the condition that the viral temperature of dark matter halos belongs to the range of 500 K ≤ Tvir≤ 104 K.
