ABSTRACTAn understanding of the electrical, structural, and optical properites of Er in Si is necessary to evaluate this system as an opto-electronic material. Extended x-ray absorption fine structure, EXAFS, measurements of Er-implanted Si show that the optically active impurity complex is Er surrounded by an O cage of 6 atoms. The Er photoluminescence intensity is a square root function of excitation power, while the free exciton intensity increases linearly. The square root dependence of the 1.54μm-intensity is independent of measurement temperature and independent of co-implanted species. Ion-implantation of Er in Si introduces donor activity, but spreading resistance carrier concentration profiles indicate that these donors do not effect the optical activity of the Er.

Abstract This paper is concerned with a fast finite element method for the three-dimensional Poisson equation in infinite domains. Both the exterior problem and the strip-tail problem are considered. Exact Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN)-type artificial boundary conditions (ABCs) are derived to reduce the original infinite-domain problems to suitable truncated-domain problems. Based on the best relative Chebyshev approximation for the square-root function, a fast algorithm is developed to approximate exact ABCs. One remarkable advantage is that one need not compute the full eigensystem associated with the surface Laplacian operator on artificial boundaries. In addition, compared with the modal expansion method and the method based on Pad$\acute{\textrm{e}}$ approximation for the square-root function, the computational cost of the DtN mapping is further reduced. An error analysis is performed and numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

Year Effect

The effect of various fertiliser treatments on the yield of maize hybrids was studied on the basis of 26 years of data obtained in a long-term bifactorial split-plot experiment set up in 1967. The seven treatments (NPK ratio 2:1:1) applied were as follows (rates per hectare): 1. Control (no fertiliser), 2. 100 kg NPK, 3. 200 kg NPK, 4. 300 kg NPK, 5. 400 kg NPK, 6. 600 kg NPK, 7. 800 kg NPK. The maize was grown with the conventional cultivation techniques in continuous cropping. The results of analyses carried out with three different methods (analysis of variance, cumulative yield analysis and regression analysis) all indicated that under the given conditions the yield of maize hybrids was highest at an NPK fertiliser rate of 200-400 kg ha -1 . The effect of fertilisation on the maize yield was significant in 21 of the 26 years. Combined analysis of variance for the years showed that the year effect (quantity of rainfall) had the greatest effect on the maize yield, but although the year effect had a fundamental effect on the yield level it did not influence the fertiliser response pattern. The fertiliser responses of the maize hybrids were described by fitting four types of functions (quadratic, square root, inverse exponential, linear-plateau) to the yield data. It was found that when selecting the best function a consideration of the regression deviations (measured yield - calculated yield) was just as important as the coefficient of determination (R 2 ). In 12 of the 26 years the fitting of the quadratic function was not significant and overestimated the fertilisation optimum. The fertiliser response curve generally has a broad maximum which is far better described by the square root function than by the quadratic. If the fertiliser response pattern includes a depressive phase, a square root function should definitely be used in place of the quadratic function. If the maximum of the response surface forms a plateau (as opposed to a maximum point) a linear-plateau function or an inverse exponential function can be recommended. In the present work the linear-plateau function gave the best results.

Specification And Verification

The project “Platform-independent approach to formal specification and verification of standard mathematical functions” is aimed onto the development of incremental combined approach to specification and verification of standard Mathematical functions like sqrt, cos, sin, etc. Platform-independence means that we attempt to design a relatively simple axiomatization of the computer arithmetics in terms of real arithmetics (i.e. the field \(\mathbb{R}\) of real numbers) but do not specify neither base of the computer arithmetics, nor a format of numbers representation. Incrementality means that we start with the most straightforward specification of the simplest case to verify the algorithm in real numbers and finish with a realistic specification and a verification of the algorithm in computer arithmetics. We call our approach combined because we start with manual (pen-and-paper) verification of the algorithm in real numbers, then use this verification as proof-outlines for a manual verification of the algorithm in computer arithmetics, and finish with a computer-aided validation of the manual proofs with a proof-assistant system (to avoid appeals to “obviousness” that are common in human-carried proofs). In the paper, we apply our platform-independent incremental combined approach to specification and verification of the standard Mathematical square root function. Currently a computer-aided validation was carried for correctness (consistency) of our fix-point arithmetics and for the existence of a look-up table with the initial approximations of the square roots for fix-point numbers.
