Detectors operating under high-background and weak-signal scenarios encounter issues such as substantial noise disturbances ,uneven signals across elements ,and unreadable signals. To satisfy the requirements for the application of infrared detectors in aerospace engineering in China ,we designed a novel low-noise readout circuit based on the traditional capacitive transimpedance amplifier ( CTIA) in this study. The circuit design utilized autozeroing technology and a new correlation double-sampling circuit with excellent noise suppression capability. We applied the proposed circuit to signal readouts in common midwave line-array infrared HgCdTe spacedetectorsand otherlow-and normal-temperaturedetectorswith operating temperatures within77~ 300K. Further ,we performed simulation verification ,followed by the tape-outof a 10× 1 line-array readout circuit using a 0. 35μm 5 V CMOS process. Our results showed a total output noise of 72. 1 μV ,which was 44. 7% lower than that of the traditional CTIA circuit..

We used the finite-difference time-domain method to simulate and analyze the results. Under TE polarization ,we achieved an average broadband absorption of94% in the wavelength rangeof20. 8~45. 34μm. UnderTM polarization ,weachieved an averagebroadband absorption of96. 3% in the wavelength range of16. 6~44. 6 μm ,thus indicating a certain degree of anisotropic absorption. In addition ,the absorption bandwidth can be altered by adjusting the width of the graphene-black phosphorus block. Simultaneously ,dynamically adjusting the Fermi level of graphene or the electron-doping concentration of black phosphorus can alter the absorption bandwidth and average absorption rate.

The results are correlated with the carrier generation rate ,energy band alignment ,and electric field. The simulations indicate that for a thin-film solar cell prepared via single-step co-evaporation ,the energy-spike-like band alignment of the CIGS/CdS heterojunction facilitates carrier transport ,resulting in excellentoutput performance when the Ga content is30%. In contrast ,the output performance of a solar cell prepared via three-step co-evaporation exceeds that of a solar cell prepared via single-step co-evaporation due to the lower defect density of its absorption layer. Increasing the thickness of the absorption layer causes the 2. 0 μm-thick layer to absorb most ultraviolet-visible lightphotons ,butfurther increases decrease the short-circuit currentdensity. Moreover ,the open-circuit voltage and optovoltage of the solar cell increase with doping concentration ,while the short-circuit current and potential barrier of the CIGS/CdS heterojunction decrease. By optimizing the thin-film solar-cell parameters ,the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the CIGS thin-film solar cellreached a maximum of27. 67%..

Owing to the variation in the magnitude of the injection current ,dynamic output impedance of dual-color IRFPA devices ,and the high sensitivity required for both bands ,the structural design of two inputstages and a large dynamic range must be achieved within the limited pixel area of the ROIC.

The effects of lithographic and etching parameters (gas flow ,gas composition ,cavity pressure ,ICP power ,and bias power) on the etching properties ,surface profile ,etching rate ,and sidewallinclination ofquartz glass were investigated. The results showed thatthe type of etching gas significantly affected the etching of the shallow cone-hole array on quartz and that the combination ofCF4 andAryielded thebestetching effect. As theCF4 gasflow rateincreased ,the quartzetching angle firstdecreased and then increased slightly. When the CF4 ∶ Argas flow ratiowas5 ∶ 3 ,the quartzetching ratewas0. 154μm/min ,the photoresistetching rate was0. 12μm/min ,and the inclination of the shallow quartz cone hole was the highest. When other etching parameters were applied ,the ICP power increased from 600 to 800W ,the quartz etching rate decreased significantly ,and polymer deposition became the dominant etching process. The roughness (Rq ) of the etched quartz increased with decreasing ICP power. As the RF power increased ,the rate of quartz etching increased ,and the Rq value of the etched quartz first increased and then decreased. When the RF power was increased to 200 W ,photoresist carbonization occurred. This study provides a technical reference for the preparation of quartz- glass microdevices..

The designed circuit can be used for shortwave infrared focal plane detector arrays. Traditional pixels typically use only one inputstage ,which makes itdifficultto balance high sensitivity and high dynamic range. In contrast ,combined pixels use a capacitive trans-impedance amplifier (CTIA) input stage along with a high dynamic range input stage ,thereby inheriting their advantages. The specific layoutof a combined pixel contains one high-dynamic-range input stage located in the middle of every 2× 2 CTIA high-sensitivity input stage.

To improve the network efficiency ,we utilized a layer-fusion technique for reducing the network depth and accelerating detection. Moreover ,we employed an 8-bit integer quantization strategy to minimize memory access and resource consumption. We designed a reusable multichannel convolution computation module by leveraging the parallel computing capability of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) on the ZynqXC7Z035 chip to reuse the digitalsignalprocessor(DSP) . The experimentalresults showed that our designed acceleration system ,which could achieve a real-time inference speed of 9. 5 FPS ,was 7. 9 times faster than intel i7-8700CPU and consumed only 2. 65 W of power ,satisfying the performance requirementof low power consumption..

We shortened the chaotic sequence of the reference timeslotto less than halfofa symbolperiod and confirmed thatthe information time slot copied and spliced the permutation arrangement of the reference timeslot P times. We analyzed the energy efficiency of the SR-PI-DCSK system and derived its BER expression in a multipath Rayleigh fading channel. Further ,we verified the accuracy of the theoretical derivation using Monte Carlo simulations. The simulation results indicate thatcompared with the PI-DCSK system ,the proposed system has a betterperformance gain under the same conditions ,thus providing a candidate chaotic modulation scheme for the nextgeneration of short-range communication applications in the Internet of Things (IOT) . Moreover ,the system can effectively improve the energy efficiency and bit error rate (BER) of the PI-DCSK system withoutincreasingits structuralcomplexity while requiring the sameenergy to recover the bitinformation..
