ABSTRACTThe red shift and asymmetric broadening of the LO phonon mode of ion-implanted GaAs are both described quantitatively by a spatial correlation model based on a damage-induced relaxation of the momentum selection rule previously used by Richter, Wang, and Ley to describe similar effects in microcrystalline Si. The success of the model for a qualitatively different disorder microstructure suggests it may be possible to evaluate average sizes of crystallographically perfect regions in semiconductors from the phonon lineshapes of their Raman spectra.

To solve the crosstalk noise question in deep-submicron technologies, a new spatial correlation model based on the distributed RC-π model is proposed in this paper. Quiet aggressor net and tree branch reduction techniques are introduced to the distributed RC-π model, and a new spatial correlation model of both Gaussian and non-Gaussian process variations among segments is created. Experimental results show that our method maintains the efficiency of past approaches, and significantly improves on their accuracy.

Model-based inference is an alternative to probability-based inference for small areas or remote areas for which probability sampling is difficult. Model-based mean square error estimators incorporate three components: prediction covariance, residual variance, and residual covariance. The latter two components are often considered negligible, particularly for large areas, but no thresholds that justify ignoring them have been reported. The objectives of the study were threefold: (i) to compare analytical and bootstrap estimators of model parameter covariances as the primary factors affecting prediction covariance; (ii) to estimate the contribution of residual variance to overall variance; and (iii) to estimate thresholds for residual spatial correlation that justify ignoring this component. Five datasets were used, three from Europe, one from Africa, and one from North America. The dependent variable was either forest volume or biomass and the independent variables were either Landsat satellite image bands or airborne laser scanning metrics. Three conclusions were noteworthy: (i) analytical estimators of the model parameter covariances tended to be biased; (ii) the effects of residual variance were mostly negligible; and (iii) the effects of spatial correlation on residual covariance vary by multiple factors but decrease with increasing study area size. For study areas greater than 75 km2 in size, residual covariance could generally be ignored.

Abstract: In Geostatistics, the use of measurement to describe the spatial dependence of the attribute is of great importance, but only some models (which have second-order stationarity) are considered with such measurement. Thus, this paper aims to propose measurements to assess the degree of spatial dependence in power model adjustment phenomena. From a premise that considers the equivalent sill as the estimated semivariance value that matches the point where the adjusted power model curves intersect, it is possible to build two indexes to evaluate such dependence. The first one, SPD * , is obtained from the relation between the equivalent contribution (α) and the equivalent sill (C * = C 0 + α), and varies from 0 to 100% (based on the calculation of spatial dependence areas). The second one, SDI * , beyond the previous relation, considers the equivalent factor of model (FM * ), which depends on the exponent β that describes the force of spatial dependence in the power model (based on spatial correlation areas). The SDI * ,for β close to 2, assumes its larger scale, varying from 0 to 66.67%. Both indexes have symmetrical distribution, and allow the classification of spatial dependence in weak, moderate and strong.
