Item type:Item, Suppressing phosphorus diffusion in germanium by carbon incorporation(2005-11-24) ;Luo, G ;Cheng, CC ;Huang, CY ;Hsu, SLChien, CHA problem in the Ge MOSFET process is that the phosphor-us for n-type doping in Ge diffuses very fast. It is very difficult to form the shallow source/drain p-n junctions. It is reported, for the first time, that the phosphorus diffusion in Ge during activation (or annealing) can be suppressed effectively owing to carbon incorporation.Item type:Item, Automatic adaptation of mobile applications to different user devices using modular mobile agents(2005-11-25) ;Kao, TH ;Yuan, SM ;資訊工程學系Department of Computer ScienceWearable, handheld, and embedded or standalone intelligent devices are becoming quite common and can support a diverse range of applications. In order to simplify development of applications which can adapt to a variety of mobile devices, we propose an adaptation framework which includes three techniques: follow-me, context-aware adaptation, and remote control scheme. For the first, we construct a personal agent capable of carrying its owner's applications. Second, we design a personal agent capable of carrying applications with an adaptable hierarchical structure. Then, applications can be adapted approximately to the context of devices by using an attribute-based component decision algorithm. Finally, to achieve a remote control scheme, we distribute the computational load of applications on the resource-restricted mobile devices. An application is divided into two parts that can be executed on a user device and a server separately. In short, this framework facilitates the development of widespread applications for ubiquitous computing environments. Furthermore, it enables the applications to follow their owners and automatically adapt to different devices.

The method includes steps of providing an insulating substrate, sequentially forming a source/drain layer, a primary gate insulating layer, and a first conducting layer on the insulating substrate, etching the first conducting layer to form a primary gate; sequentially forming a secondary gate insulating layer and a second conducting layer on the primary gate; and etching the second conducting layer to form a first secondary gate and a second secondary gate.Item type:Item, Stable organic blue-light-emitting devices prepared from poly[spiro(fluorene-9,9'-xanthene)](2005-11-29) ;Tseng, YH ;Shih, PI ;Chien, CH ;Dixit, AKShu, CFA short, efficient synthetic route has been developed for the preparation of 2,7-dibromospiro-[fluorene-9,9'-(2',7'-di-n-octyloxyxanthene)], which was subsequently polymerized with the corresponding diborolane through Suzuki coupling to afford a fluorene-based homopolymer, PSFX, that contains a spiroxanthene group functionalized on the C-9 position of each fluorene repeat unit. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of the dibromo monomer revealed that the spiro-fused fluorene and xanthene moieties lie perpendicular to one another. As a consequence of the incorporation of the spiro pendant group, PSFX possesses a high glass transition temperature and good thermal stability while displaying its stable blue emission in the solid state. A light-emitting diode device prepared using PSFX as the emitting layer exhibits an efficient, stable blue emission; it has a turn-on voltage of 6 V and a maximum external quantum efficiency of 1.74% ph/el. Even when the brightness was increased up to 10(3) cd/m(2) (ca. 11 V), the CIE color coordinates of the resulting EL spectrum remained in the deep-blue region (0.15, 0.07) and the device's efficiency was 1.33% ph/el.Item type:Item, An isolated Candida albicans TL3 capable of degrading phenol at large concentration(2005-12-01) ;Tsai, SC ;Tsai, LD ;Li, YK ;應用化學系應用化學系分子科學碩博班An isolated yeast strain was grown aerobically on phenol as a sole carbon source up to 24 mm; the rate of degradation of phenol at 30 degrees C was greater than other microorganisms at the comparable phenol concentrations. This microorganism was further identified and is designated Candida albicans TL3. The catabolic activity of C. albicans TL3 for degradation of phenol was evaluated with the K-s and V-max values of 1.7 +/- 0.1 mm and 0.66 +/- 0.02 mu mol/min/mg of protein, respectively. With application of enzymatic, chromatographic and mass-spectrometric analyses, we confirmed that catechol and cis,cis-muconic acid were produced during the biodegradation of phenol performed by C. albicans TL3, indicating the occurrence of an ortho-fission pathway. The maximum activity of phenol hydroxylase and catechol-1,2-dioxygenase were induced when this strain grew in phenol culture media at 22 mm and 10 mm, respectively. In addition to phenol, C. albicans TL3 was effective in degrading formaldehyde, which is another major pollutant in waste water from a factory producing phenolic resin. The promising result from the bio-treatment of such factory effluent makes Candida albicans TL3 be a potentially useful strain for industrial application.Item type:Item, Airline flight frequency determination in response to competitive interactions using fuzzy logic(2005-12-01) ;Hsu, CI ;Wen, YH ;運輸與物流管理系 註:原交通所+運管所Department of Transportation and Logistics ManagementThis study determines the flight frequencies on an airline network in response to anticipated airline competitive interactions using fuzzy logic. It is expressed as an optimization problem to be solved in the medium-term airline network-planning phase, and it deals with tactical decisions made one season or one year in advance. The proposed model includes three submodels-an airline market share model, a flight-frequency programming model, and a fuzzy-logic-based competitive interaction model. Flight frequencies on an airline network with competitive interactions are analyzed by combining these three submodels. A case study, demonstrating the feasibility of applying the proposed model, confirms that the competitive interactions will converge. The results of this study confirm the accuracy of the proposed model and their flexibility of the decision-making involved in determining flight frequencies on an airline network in competitive and uncertain environments.

This paper analyzes the regional development of China by examining economic performance and environmental factors. Technical efficiency and productivity changes in 31 regions of China are computed for the period 1997-2001. In the case of regional GDP, the fast-developing eastern (coastal) regions experience higher technical efficiency and productivity growth than the inland central and western regions. When environmental factors are incorporated, the eastern regions still perform better than inland regions, both from static and dynamic analysis. This phenomenon is termed the 'double deterioration' of the inland areas in China. Double deterioration is attributed to the lack of economic resources to replace highly-polluting production equipment and technology in those less developed regions.Item type:Item, Item type:Item, Reduction of particle reentrainment using porous fence in front of dust samples(2005-12-01) ;Huang, CH ;Lee, CI ;Tsai, CJ ;環境工程研究所Institute of Environmental EngineeringWind tunnel experiments were conducted to measure the emission factor of particle reentrainment from a dust sample with or without a porous fence. The effect of wind velocity, fence porosity, and distance between the fence and the dust sample on the emission factor was studied. A 20% porous fence was found to be effective for reducing the particle reentrainment at a low wind velocity of 5 m/s. When the wind velocity was increase from 7 to 15 m/s, the results show that the particle reentrainment can also be reduced in a certain region behind the fence (x/H<4, x=distance between fence and sample; H=fence height) for the 20% porous fence. A linear multivariable regression model was fitted to the logarithmically transformed experimental data. The good fit of the regression model makes it possible to estimate emission rate as a function of the dimensionless distance (x/H), the wind velocity, and the elapsed time.Item type:Item, Oxide-trap-enhanced Coulomb energy in a metal-oxide-semiconductor system(2005-12-01) ;Lu, MP ;Chen, MJ ;電子工程學系及電子研究所Department of Electronics Engineering and Institute of ElectronicsCoulomb energy is essential to the charging of a nanometer-scale trap in the oxide of a metal-oxide-semiconductor system. Traditionally the Coulomb energy calculation was performed on the basis of an interfacelike trap. In this paper, we present experimental evidence from a 1.7-nm oxide: Substantial enhancements in Coulomb energy due to the existence of a deeper trap in the oxide. Other corroborating evidence is achieved on a multiphonon theory, which can adequately elucidate the measured capture and emission kinetics. The corresponding configuration coordinate diagrams are established. We further elaborate on the clarification of the Coulomb energy and differentiate it from that in memories containing nanocrystals or quantum dots in the oxide. Some critical issues encountered in the work are addressed as well.Item type:Item, 諾貝爾生理醫學獎得主Phillip A. Sharp博士蒞校訪問(國立陽明大學, 2005-12-01)陽明電子報編輯小組諾貝爾生理醫學獎得主Phillip A.

In this paper, we propose a mobility support for mobile host roaming between WLAN and GPRS networks. In addition, a handoff decision model is presented to reduce the latency of the handoff procedure. The experimental results, including throughput, packet delay and handoff latency are given to show the performance of our approach. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Based on that review, topology-aided cross-layer fast handoff designs are proposed for Mobile IP over IEEE 802.11 networks. Time-sensitive applications, such as voice over IP (VoIP), cannot tolerate the long layer-2. plus layer-3 handoff delays that arise in IEEE 802.11/Mobile IP environments. Cross-layer designs are increasingly adopted to shorten the handoff latency time. Handoff-related layer-2 triggers may reduce the delay between layer-2 handoff completion and the associated layer-3 handoff activation. Cross-layer topology information, such as the association between 802.11 access points and Mobile IP mobility agents, together with layer-2 triggers, can be utilized by a mobile node to start layer-3 handoff-related activities, such as agent discovery, address configuration, and registration, in parallel with or prior to those of layer-2 handoff. Experimental results indicate that the whole handoff delay can meet the delay requirement of VoIP applications when layer-3 handoff activities occur prior to layer-2 handoffs.Item type:Item, A novel Mach-Zehnder interferometer based on dual-ARROW structures for sensing applications(2005-12-01) ;Hsu, SH ;Huang, YT ;電子工程學系及電子研究所Department of Electronics Engineering and Institute of ElectronicsA novel Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based on dual antiresonant reflecting optical waveguides (ARROWs) for sensing is proposed. By adjusting the degree of structural symmetry to control the coupling behavior of the dual ARROW, an interferometric sensor without any bending structure can be realized. Operating principles and simulation characteristics of the device are discussed in detail. The refractive-index detection limit of the order of 10(-5) is achieved.
