The latch-up effect has been prevented on the improved circuit. It is extremely important that all the excellent performances of the improved astable multivibrator have been achieved with a dynamic power consumption equaling its predecessor one.

The OTLAMR problem contains two sub-problems: the MMMCN reliabilities evaluation and multi-objective transmission lines assignment optimization. First, a reliability evaluation with a transmission line assignment (RETLA) algorithm is proposed to calculate the MMMCN reliabilities under the cost constraint for a certain transmission lines configuration. Second, the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) is adopted to find the non-dominated set of the transmission lines assignments based on the reliabilities obtained from the RETLA algorithm. By combining the RETLA and the NSGA-II algorithms together, the RETLA-NSGA II algorithm is proposed to solve the OTLAMR problem. The experiments result show that the RETLA-NSGA II algorithm can provide efficient solutions in a reasonable time, from which the decision makers can choose the best solution based on their preferences and experiences.展开更多

The multimode-interference couplers were etched deeply for improving coupler characteristics such as self-imaging quality, uniformity and fabrication toierance. The proposed switch achieves good performances, including a low insertion loss of -11.0dB, a fiber-waveguide coupling loss of-4.3dB and a fast response speed measured to be 3.5 and 8.8 μs for raise and fall switching time, respectively.展开更多
