Laser machining systems have been widely applied in micro-fabrication process development for 20 years. The current availability of nanosecond pulse UV laser sources is broadening the applications of laser micro-processing. In this work we present main features and potential applications of an integrative nanosecond pulse laser micro-machining numerical control system. Nanosecond Pulse Ultraviolet Laser (355nm) machining is an important method for developing micro structures. According to the special need for micro-machining, we designed a NC system based on PCI bus and FPGA technologies. This system consists of a 3-D motion platform including a displacement signal feedback system with accuracy of 1 um, a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) monitor and a workstation. After briefly describing the laser machining system, some micro structures were fabricated with different laser parameters. And a morphological characteristic is evaluated by optical microscopy. Keywords-NC system, nanosecond pulse UV laser,micromachining, silicon, ceramic, copper

Now Eucalyptus wood begins to be used to pulp. The leaching rule of nano particles from E.camaldulensis Wood has an important significance in the forestry research and paper making engineering. Therefore, based on the single-factor method, the fresh E. camaldulensis shavings were treated by LiOH in a concentration range of 0.5%~25% g/mL and the duration is 3, 16 and 24 hours respectively. The extraction mass was analyzed and the results were discussed. The filtrates were analyzed by ZETA and SIZER. The results were following as: (1)The extraction mass arrived at the maximum value when concentration is about 17.5%. (2)The micro/nano particles in the diameter of 531-1720 nm, 531-17200 nm, 164-531nm is the most at the extracting time of 3h, 16h, 24h, respectively (2) The diameter the micro/nano particles of wood extractives and hemicellulose is chiefly between 164-1720 nm according to number fraction. However, there are micro particles in the diameter of more than 1720nm when LiOH concentration is biger than 15%. The micro/nano particles in the diameter of 531-1720 nm, 531-1720 nm, 164-531 nm is the most at the extracting time of 3h, 16h, 24h, respectively.

Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), one of the most widely used techniques in modern microelectronics, is firstly employed to prepare ferromagnetic ZnO-based and TiO2-based magnetic semiconductors at low deposition temperature without any carrier gas. ZnO-based films show excellent photoluminescence at room temperature. All doped oxide films show room-temperature ferromagnetic behaviors by using superconducting quantum interference device measurements. Magnetic ions incorporating into host lattice and the exclusion of secondary phase in films are confirmed by microstructure analysis and magnetic results, such as XRD, XPS, PL and FC/ZFC. In order to gain insights into the effect of oxygen vacancies or nitrogen implantation on ferromagnetism of oxide-based semiconductors, all films were annealed in N2 ambience at 900 or treated in NH3 or O2 plasma at 350 . The results indicated the crucial role of hole-carriers or oxygenvacancies playing in the ferromagnetic coupling between magnetic ions in oxide-based semiconductors.

Nano-zirconia powders which were surface-modified with silane coupling reagent WD70 were prepared in order to disperse homogeneously in photosensitive material in this investigation. Grain size and grain phase of nano-zirconia were obtained by XRD. Results given by FT-IR showed WD70 was jointed on the surface of nano-zirconia through both physical adsorption and chemical binding after de-methanol reaction between the methoxyl groups of WD70 and the hydroxy groups on the surface of nano-zirconia. Surface-modified nanozirconia was applied to the Computer To Plate (CTP) plates of thermal cross linking type, and it was found that the adding of nanozirconia could shorten the after-bake time of the plates.

Principle, structure design, and experimental setup of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor with a simple signal detection method for demodulation of resonance wavelength shift of the FBG are introduced, which uses a cascade self-demodulated fiber Bragg grating pair attached respectively on the upper and lower surface of a pendulum-type cantilever element instead of a twice reflection FBG pair structure for both parameter sensing and wavelength shift signal demodulating. In addition, crosssensitivity effect of FBG-based sensor automatically solved due to a differential signal process method. With this demodulation method, current, and vibration measurement experiments are carried out. Experimental results indicate that current measurement error of ±1mA can be obtained within the whole range from 0 to 400mA, vibration measurement are also obtained based on the present experiment setup.

Advances of laser have opened new possibilities in the field of detection. The technology of laser-generated surface acoustic waves (LSAWs) is one of the applications of laser. According to the thermal-elastic theory, surface acoustic waves (SAWs) could be generated through rapid heating and subsequent expansion of the surface layer when the laser pulse irradiates on the surface of sample. The abundant information of sample surface could be obtained by testing and analyzing the SAW waveforms. The SAWs are dispersive when the waves propagate on the layered film structure. The Young's Modulus (E) of the film can be determined accurately and conveniently by matching the experimental dispersion curve with the theoretical curves. An experimental system is constructed to detect the E value of a low-k film which is deposited on the silicon (100) substrate by the method of LSAWs.

on the research of optimum bit allocation with rate-distortion theory[15], however the algorithm is too complicated to be implemented actually. Besides, the algorithm just aims at the binocular video transmission, so that it is difficult for it to solve the bit allocation and rate control in multi-view video coding. It is necessary to study the efficient and relevant algorithm of bit allocation and RC. In this paper, we improve the RDmodel to better predict the bit rate firstly. Then we propose a multi-view video oriented frame level RC algorithm which is based on the character of MVC and requirement of RC. Experimental results show that compared with the Multi-view video coding using fixed quantization parameter (QP), our multi-view video oriented bit allocation and RC algorithm in which the parameters are predefined can control the bit rate more efficiently.

We present an improved centroid algorithm designed for an economical, high-performance biomolecular interaction analyzer, which is based on the use of TSPR1k23 biosensors and composed of a microflow cell, a thermoelectric cooler (TEC), a clamp, a touch-screen monitor, three microprocessors and a photoelectronic conversion device. The proposed algorithm can be applied to asymmetric surfac plasmon resonance (SPR) curves often obtained by a gold-based SPR biochemical analyzer and evaluated by the numerical calculations. The validity and efficiency of the algorithm were demonstrated by a comparison of the numerical calculation results with the experimental results obtained by using the SPR biochemical analyzer to measure the ethanol solutions with five concentrations of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 wt.%. The sensitivity of the SPR biochemical analyzer was fairly enhanced by the improved centroid algorithm that we argued in this work even without the assistance of a laptop computer. In comparsion with the first-order centroid algorithm, the experimental results further showed that the errors of measurement could be reduced when such an improved centroid algorithm was used.
