Abstract: A quantum dot/quantum well light emitting diode (LED) is provided with a LED at one side of a substrate, and a second light emitting layer and a third light emitting layer at the other side of the substrate. When a proper forward bias is applied to the LED to emit a first light by the first light emitting layer, the first light is used to excite the second light emitting layer and the third light emitting layer to generate the second light output and the third light output of different colors respectively. Then, the light output of a desired color can be generated by mixing the first light, the second light and the third light.

Abstract: A broad bandwidth detector to measure intensity information of terahertz (THz) frequency pulses. The detector includes: coupling optics coupled to a coherent optical source; a GaSe substrate aligned such that the probe beam path intersects a first surface at a phase-matching angle; a polarization detector aligned in the probe beam path; and calculation means coupled to the polarization detector. The coupling optics direct the probe optical beam along a beam path that is substantially collinear with the pulse beam path of the THz frequency pulses. The polarization of the probe optical beam is varied based on interactions between the probe optical beam and the THz frequency pulses within the GaSe substrate. The polarization detector detects the varied polarization of the probe optical beam. The calculation means determine the intensity information of the THz frequency pulses based on the detected probe polarization of the probe optical beam.

Abstract: A checking mechanism for complete full-chip ESD protection circuit design and layout verification at layout level identifies all of both intentional and parasitic ESD devices contained in the design layout file and compiles a netlist. The checking mechanism then determines the critical operating parameters of the identified ESD devices and determines if the parasitic devices will negatively effect ESD protection performance. The checking mechanism then determines if the intentional devices meet design specifications; eliminates parasitic devices which will not negatively effect ESD protection from the netlist, and retains those parasitic devices which may lead to ESD protection malfunction. Design layout verification and faults are then reported.

Abstract: A link method for establishing a link between two bluetooth devices is provided to enable a device to transfer data to/from other device located in a bluetooth scatternet. The link method executes a link initialization procedure when resetting or initializing a link to determine whether the role of the bluetooth device at a dedicated link is a slave or master. Then, in the link search establishment procedure, it searches all possible paths for transferring data packet and establishes a link path table. Finally, when the link detection timer expires after a pre-determined period, the link detection procedure is resumed to detect whether the link is existed. If the link is not existed, the link initialization procedure is executed; otherwise, it further determines whether to execute the link initialization procedure again. If yes, the link initialization procedure is executed, otherwise the link detection procedure is executed.
