MA Jian-guo, YAO Ming, TAN Cher Ming
2009, 38(5): 495-504. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.003
Abstract:
The history of electromigration (EM) modeling of IC interconnects is briefly reviewed. The widely used one-dimension (1-D) EM-induced back flow model is introduced. Based on the conception of atomic flux divergence (AFD), the EM modeling can also be mainly grouped into two approaches. One is the conventional diffusion path approach, which has explained many important phenomena in traditional Al on-chip metallization. However, the microelectronic industry has turned to Cu/low-k interconnects in need of better performances of the shrinking chip, and three-dimensional (3-D) integrated circuit technology is also introduced. In this trend, the driving force approach is developed, which can help to understand many phenomena in narrow interconnection. The finite element modeling (FEM) is used more and more in the driving force formalism.

Abstract:
The spintronics refers to the research area where electron spins, in additional to or sometimes in place of electron charges, are controlled and manipulated to give rise to an array of properties. Spintronic devices have already found applications in computer hard drive and magnetic random access memory, profoundly changed the information technology industry. These applications utilize the spin polarized transport where electron with fixed spin direction transverse through magnetic heterostructures.

LIN Yuan, YANG Dan-dan, DAI Chao, LIU Sheng-hua, LUO H M, JIA Q X
2009, 38(5): 524-530. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.005
Abstract:
Polymer assisted deposition (PAD) is a new thin film deposition technique which has been developed recently. In this technique, aqueous solutions of metal precursors and water-soluble polymers are combined together. This results in homogenous and steady solutions by binding the metal ions to the polymers. After coating the solutions on the substrates, the precursor films will go through a heat treatment to pyrolyze the polymer and form solid films, In this paper, we show some representative oxide and nitride films grown by PAD, including simple oxide/nitride such as TiO32, GaN, AlN and complex oxide/nitride such as (Ba,Sr)TiO33 and Ti1?xAlxN. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, dielectric measurement, and optics measurement are used to characterize structural and physical properties of the films. Effects of substrates and growth conditions on structural and physical properties are discussed. These results indicate that PAD can be used widely to prepare high quality oxide and nitride thin films.

2009, 38(5): 562-567. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.011
Abstract:
The code with quasi-three-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell plus Monte Carlo collision (PIC/MCC) method is proposed for the research of ionization process of argon electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) discharge. The electron energy distributions in different regions of ECR reactor are obtained when the steady state of ECR discharge attains, and the variations of these distributions with neutral pressure and external magnetic field are also discussed. As the neutral pressure increases, the low energy electrons decrease and the high energy ones increase at the region away from ECR layer, while the variations of electron energy distribution with neutral pressure are opposite at ECR layer. In the far downstream region, the electron energy confinements are better with the mirror-type magnetic configuration than with the convergence-type one. The simulation results and discussions are useful for the optimization of the ECR plasma applied in deposition, etching or other micro-electronic fabrications.

WANG Jun, LI Hong-yu, ZHANG Shi-chang, LI Shao-qian
2009, 38(5): 639-643. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.022
Abstract:
In order to enhance channel estimation performance of NC-OFDM systems in the case of lacking enough pilot symbols, a novel channel estimation scheme with modified noise reduction in transform domain is proposed. Channel multipath fading coefficients are estimated by inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT) in time domain based on the relationship between time and frequency domain expressions of the channel fading coefficients of NC-OFDM systems. Noise reduction filtering is performed in time domain. Finaly, the channel fading coefficients are obtained in frequency domain by discrete Fourier transform (DFT) without interpolation. Simulation results show the proposed channel estimation scheme outperforms the conventional LS estimation with a gain of about 4dB.

LENG Su-peng, LI Yong, LIU Ke
2009, 38(5): 644-650. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.023
Abstract:
The competitive and shared wireless channel is vulnerable by random backoff attacks from malicious nodes (or selfish nodes). As a consequence, the channel resource can be occupied unfairly, or the private benefit can be enhanced selfishly. This paper proposes a novel central limit theorem (CLT) based algorithm to detect medium access control (MAC) misbehaviors of malicious nodes. This algorifhm is able to decrease the computational complexity, adjust the efficiency and the accuracy of detection on-demand, and implement the collaborated detection in a distributed manner. In order to improve the detection correctness of malicious nodes, the CLT based algorithm can be further enhanced by the Markov chain detection model. Compared with the traditional detection methods, the CLT based algorithm has the characteristics with lower misdiagnose probability and more detection efficiency. Simulation experiments show that the CLT based algorithm is superior to the DOMINO algorithm for diagnosing backoff attacks misbehaviors, in terms of detection correctness and convergence speed.

Abstract:
Simulation of polarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging of sea wave has great significance on sea surface scattering. According to the theory of random ocean wave, rough ocean surface is modeled in this paper. Random rough ocean surface which contains swell is constructed using the two-scale-model. This treatment takes both the large scale and small scale surface into account. By using the Bragg scattering model and the geometry optical approximation method, polarization SAR images of the modeled ocean surface at different wind speeds are simulated. The effects of the parameters of ocean waves and the parameters of SAR system are analyzed. Finally, some useful conclusions are drawn, which are helpful for extracting the information of ocean surface.

WU Jin-zhao, HOU Hui, LI Shao-rong
2009, 38(5): 656-668. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.025
Abstract:
The forthcoming semantic Web evolving from the current World Wide Web is designed to define the semantics of information and services on the web, thereby endowing the web with intelligence to automatically reason about the web contents. Description logics (DLs) play a substantial role in the semantic Web, since they underlie the W3C-recommended Web ontology language (OWL), which is derived from ontology research in artificial intelligence (AI) in order to achieve the goal of the semantic Web. However, the knowledge and data in the Semantic Web are large-scale, dispersive, multi-authored, and therefore usually inconsistent. It is reasonable and imperative to develop practical reasoning techniques for inconsistent ontologies. This paper proposes a new type of paraconsistent description logics based on Hunter's quasi-classical logic (QCL), which are termed as quasi-classical description logics (QCDLs). QCDLs avoid logical explosion. A semantic tableau calculus is constructed in QCDLs for the reasoning on the knowledge bases with acyclic TBox. Furthermore, a sound, complete and decidable consequence relation based on the calculus is defined. These enable a complete framework for paraconsistent reasoning in the Semantic Web. A comparison with other key paraconsistent description logics is also given. It is shown that QCDLs possess more expressive semantics and stronger reasoning capability, and that its connectives behave classically at the object level.
On Invariance of Dynamic CTL Model Checking in Iterative Design of Moore Machine-based System
LI Shao-rong, YANG Shi-han, WU Jin-zhao
2009, 38(5): 669-677. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.026
Abstract:
Model checking is a promising approach to verifying safety properties of trusted computing systems in the design phase of system-level. Dynamic model checking is the model checking in which the model changes frequently along the design process. A serious problem for dynamic model checking is that the cost of re-checking is too expensive due to model being changed trivially, so a key issue of the problem is to seek invariance in order to avoid the checking repeatedly. An invariance is a true predicate that will remain true throughout a sequence of model checking. In this paper, a formal framework of dynamic model checking is constructed, and an invariance theory is proposed based on an iterative design process of flow control oriented systems described by Moore machines. It is proved that some non-trivial computation tree logic (CTL) properties can be preserved in the iteration.

Abstract:
The fault self-diagnosis and fault monitoring can improve the maintainability and reliability of wireless sensor network (WSN) and prolong the lifetime of WSN. In this paper, a novel method of fault self-diagnosis for the nodes of WSN is brought forward.

A set of node's fault self-diagnosis techniques based on attribute matching in WSN are built. Finally, the faults for each module of nodes in WSN are diagnosed and located in detail. The simulation shows that this method only needs a little expenditure of communication, very low energy of nodes in WSN and low misdiagnosis rate when fault self-diagnosis is implemented in WSN.

Abstract:
Compared with ordinary digital signature, the designated verifier signature scheme makes it possible for a signer to convince a designated verifier that she has signed a message in such a way that the designated verifier cannot transfer the signature to a third party. In designated verifier signature scheme, no third party can even verify the validity of a designated verifier signature since it must use the designated verifier's secret key in verification. Recently, an ID-based strong designated verifier scheme, ID-based designated verifier proxy signature scheme, and partial cryptanalysis ware proposed. In this paper, we show that the designated verifier signature scheme is delegatable, and the designated verifier proxy signature is forgeable since construction of the proxy scheme is unreasonable.

Abstract:
Traditional field programmable gate array (FPGA) test schemes confront many problems, such as memory depth not large enough to meet requirement of configuration of many times, I/O pin counts usually less than needed, manual configuration generation and download, no position of fault sites, etc. A new approach to test FPGA based on SoC HW/SW co-verification technology is proposed and verified in the paper. This test scheme has taken advantage of flexibility and observability of software in conjunction with high-speed simulation of hardware. As a result, efficiency and reliability of the test can be enhanced without manual work. In the experiment, the proposed test approach has been applied to a Xilinx 4010 FPGA to implement automatic configuration, test as well as location of fault sites.

Abstract:
The phenomenon of printed circuit board (PCB) bonding finger surface discoloration was explained by analyzing the diffusion of copper atoms,that was, the copper atoms diffused from copper substrate to PCB bonding finger surface, then was oxidized. At the same time, the inherent driving force of copper atoms diffusion in the PCB bonding finger was analyzed. In addition, the diffusion flux and concentration distribution expressions of copper atoms in the PCB bonding finger were drawn by analyzing Fick's Law combined with actual conditions, which provided a theoretical basis for preventing diffusion of copper atoms in the PCB bonding finger.

Abstract:
A new crosshatching technology on polyimide flexible substrate is described using chemical etching method. The etching solution is composed of Potassium hydroxide, Sodium hydroxide, and additives. The window of demanding is crosshatched in certain conditions on polyimide flexible substrate. The technology process and mechanism of etching are also discussed in detail with examples of hollowing board process. The demerits of the pre-investment and maintenance costs too high or precision too low to traditional crosshatching process are conquered. The new crosshatching technology on polyimide flexible substrate can be applied in the small and high-density FPCB products that have high added value.

Abstract:
Phosphor doped (n-type) hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin films were deposited by radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF-PECVD). The refractive index, extinction coefficient, optical bandgap and hydrogen content of the testing films were investigated by means of ellipsometry and Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) with gas pressure varied from 20 Pa to 80 Pa. The microstructural changes of a-Si:H thin films caused by different gas pressure were studied and discussed using Raman spectra along with optical property measurement. The results show that the optical bandgap and the hydrogen content of a-Si:H thin films increase with the rise of gas pressure in PECVD system, while the refractive index and the extinction coefficient decrease gradually. In the mean time, the ordering of amorphous network of the testing thin films on the short and intermediate scales is getting worse as the gas pressure goes up.

2009, 38(5): 734-736. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-0548.2009.05.038
Abstract:
From the point of view of the principle of special relativity, it can be known that under the Lorentz transformation of space and time, the electromagnetic field vectors are different with the inertial frames, but the forms of the Maxwell equations are invariant. According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction and Ampere's law based on Maxwell's hypothesis of displacement current, the expressions for relativity of time-varying electromagnetic field in resourceless free space to inertial frames which move relatively in low speed are derived concisely. In addition, the form invariance of the basic equations of time-varying electromagnetic field based on the obtained expressions is discussed. The gained results are very important to help ones understand and apply Maxwell's equations of time-varying electromagnetic field.
