Compared with a single-layer device, it reports that an improved field-effect mobility and a 6-fold higher drain current are observed. The highest mobility of 0.081 cm^2/（V. s） was obtained from F16CuPc/CuPc heterojunction devices. This result is attributed to the dual effects of the organic heterojunction and interface modification. Furthermore, for two heterojunction devices, the performance of the F16CuPc/CuPc-based transistor is better than that of F16CuPc/pentacene. This is attributed to the morphologic match of two organic components.展开更多

The process of face recognition, however, is inhibited by variations in the appearance of face images caused by changes in lighting, expression, viewpoint, aging and introduction of occlusion. Although various algorithms have been presented for face recognition, face recognition is still a very challenging topic. A novel approach of real time face recognition for HCI is proposed in the paper. In view of the limits of the popular approaches to foreground segmentation, wavelet multi-scale transform based background subtraction is developed to extract foreground objects. The optimal selection of the threshold is automatically determined, which does not require any complex supervised training or manual experimental calibration. A robust real time face recognition algorithm is presented, which combines the projection matrixes without iteration and kernel Fisher discriminant analysis （KFDA） to overcome some difficulties existing in the real face recognition. Superior performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by comparing with other algorithms through experiments. The proposed algorithm can also be applied to the video image sequences of natural HCI.展开更多

The effects of ultrasonic bonding parameters on the reliability of flip chip GaN-based LED were investigated. In the sequent aging tests, samples were driven with a constant current of 80 mA for hundreds hours at the room temperature. It was found that the electroluminescence （EL） intensity variation had a large correlation to the ultrasonic power, and then to the bonding temperature and force. A high bonding temperature and ultrasonic power and a proper bonding force improved the EL intensity significantly. It was contributed to a strong atom inter-diffusion forming a stable joint at the bonding interface, The temperature fluctuation in the aging test was the main factor to generate a high inner stress forming delamination at the interface between the chip and Au bump. As a result, delamination had retarded the photons to emit out of the LED packaging and decay its EL intensity.展开更多

The method adopts bionic algorithm： genetic algorithm （GA） and particle swarm optimization （PSO） algorithm. The method using single GA is more time-consuming, and the search efficiency is low in later evolution; the PSO algorithm is easily falling into the local optimal solution and appears the premature convergent phenomenon. Hence, a hybrid approach of GAPSO is found to optimize the search for high grayscale weights scanning matrix. Finally in the acceptable time, it finds a weight scanning matrix （WSM） of 256 gray scales with Matlab, whose scanning efficiency reaches 94.73% and the linearity is very good.展开更多

This technique achieves the highest possible coding efficiency, but it results in extremely large computation complexity which obstructs the multiview video coding （MVC） from practical application. This paper proposes an adaptive early termination of fast mode decision algorithm for MVC. It makes use of the coding information of the corresponding MBs in neighbor view based on inter-view correlation to early terminate the mode decision procedure. Experimental results show that the proposed fast mode decision algorithm can achieve computational 50% computation saving with no significant loss of rate distortion （RD） performance.展开更多

However, due to synthesizing arbitrary view images, the virtual view images mostly have no reference images and are only assessed using non-reference. Virtual view images synthesized by depth estimation reference software （DERS） and view synthesis reference software （VSRS） often accompanied with blockiness and other distortions on the edge. In addition, matching level for the depth map and the corresponding texture maps of left and right views also affects the quality of the virtual view. This paper compares the edge similarity of the depth and the corresponding texture maps which generate the intermediate virtual view and combined with the virtual view＇s blockiness which causing blur to evaluate the quality of the virtual view. Experiment results show that the proposed method can reflect the quality of the virtual view better.展开更多

However, the small screen and different aspect ratios of mobile devices lower visual quality while watching images or videos. Video retargeting is aim at fitting an existing video into arbitrary size and aspect ratio. Previous content-aware retargeting methods are mostly high computational cost, which limits their applications on the portable devices with low computation ability. In this paper, a new crop-and-scale approach is presented to adapt video to better suit the target display. We automatically find the optimal parameters of cropping window using the dynamic programming method,, and then scale it to fit the target display. The cropping window can smoothly shift during a shot to follow the movement＇of important objects. The retargeting results using our approach introduce no deformation and jitter effects over the whole video. Experimental results show the success of our approach on adapting a variety of source videos to small display sizes.展开更多

When depth maps are derived using existing depth estimation methods, the depth distortions will cause undesirable artifacts in the synthesized views. To solve this problem, a 3D video quality model base depth maps （D-3DV） for virtual view synthesis and depth map coding in the FTV applications is proposed. First, the relationships between distortions in coded depth map and rendered view are derived. Then, a precisely 3DV quality model based depth characteristics is develop for the synthesized virtual views. Finally, based on D-3DV model, a multilateral filtering is applied as a pre-processed filter to reduce rendering artifacts. The experimental results evaluated by objective and subjective methods indicate that the proposed D-3DV model can reduce bit-rate of depth coding and achieve better rendering quality.展开更多

文摘Emission characteristics of top emitting organic light-emitting devices （TOLEDs） with Ag as reflective anode, Al/Ag as semitransparent cathode and 90 160 nm [N-（1-naphthyl）-N-phenyl-amino] biphenyl/tris-（8-hydroxy quinoline） aluminum （NPB/Alq3） sandwiched in the electrodes are examined. The electroluminescence （EL） spectra of the TOLEDs are simulated based on the Fabry-Perot cavity theory. And the resonant modes in cavity structure of TOLEDs is discussed and clarified which can accurately describe the work principle of the devices. A fairly good match between calculated values and experimental data is achieved at different emission colors from bluish green to orange.

文摘Mobile devices are increasingly powerful in multimedia transmitting and browsing. However, the small screen and different aspect ratios of mobile devices lower visual quality while watching images or videos. Video retargeting is aim at fitting an existing video into arbitrary size and aspect ratio. Previous content-aware retargeting methods are mostly high computational cost, which limits their applications on the portable devices with low computation ability. In this paper, a new crop-and-scale approach is presented to adapt video to better suit the target display. We automatically find the optimal parameters of cropping window using the dynamic programming method,, and then scale it to fit the target display. The cropping window can smoothly shift during a shot to follow the movement＇of important objects. The retargeting results using our approach introduce no deformation and jitter effects over the whole video. Experimental results show the success of our approach on adapting a variety of source videos to small display sizes.

文摘Depth maps are used for synthesis virtual view in free-viewpoint television （FTV） systems. When depth maps are derived using existing depth estimation methods, the depth distortions will cause undesirable artifacts in the synthesized views. To solve this problem, a 3D video quality model base depth maps （D-3DV） for virtual view synthesis and depth map coding in the FTV applications is proposed. First, the relationships between distortions in coded depth map and rendered view are derived. Then, a precisely 3DV quality model based depth characteristics is develop for the synthesized virtual views. Finally, based on D-3DV model, a multilateral filtering is applied as a pre-processed filter to reduce rendering artifacts. The experimental results evaluated by objective and subjective methods indicate that the proposed D-3DV model can reduce bit-rate of depth coding and achieve better rendering quality.
