The problem of anti-disturbance control is studied for a class of stochastic systems with multiple heterogeneous disturbances, which include three kinds of disturbance. One is the non-harmonic disturbance coupled with system state and control input. The other one is an unexpected nonlinear signal described as a nonlinear function. The third one is white noise. An adaptive nonlinear disturbance observer (ANDO) is constructed to estimate non-harmonic disturbance. Based on which, a new adaptive nonlinear disturbance observer-based control (ANDOBC) strategy is developed such that the composite system is asymptotically bounded in mean square. Simulation results are given to show its effectiveness of the proposed method.
The radiation fluence of high luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is predicted up to 1 × 1016 1 MeV neq/cm2 in the ATLAS and CMS experiments for the pixel detectors at the innermost layers. The increased radiation leads to the degradation of the detector properties, such as increased leakage current and full depletion voltage, and reduced signals and charge collection efficiency, which means it is necessary to develop the radiation hard semiconductor devices for very high luminosity colliders. In our previous study about ultra-fast 3D-trench electrode silicon detectors, through induced transient current simulation with different minimum ionizing particle (MIP) hitting positions, the ultra-fast response times ranging from 30 ps to 140 ps were verified. In this work, the full depletion voltage, breakdown voltage, leakage current, capacitance, weighting field and MIP induced transient current (signal) of the detector after radiation at different fluences will be simulated and calculated with professional software, namely the finite-element Technology Computer-Aided Design (TCAD) software frameworks. From analysis of the simulation results, one can predict the performance of the detector in heavy radiation environment. The fabrication of pixel detectors will be carried out in CMOS process platform of IMECAS based on ultra-pure high resistivity (up to 104 ohm·cm) silicon material.
For a type of nonlinear systems with multiple disturbances, finite-time stability is researched in this paper. The disturbances include unknown frequency disturbance and unknown bounded disturbances. The unknown frequency disturbances are transformed into the model with unknown vectors by Sylvester matrix transformation, which is estimated by designing an adaptive disturbance observer. Then, a finite-time anti-disturbance controller is constructed to keep the system globally stable in finite time. Finally, the validity of the finite-time anti-disturbance controller is proved by simulations, including a numerical example and a satellite attitude control system.
A new type of 3D electrode detector, named here as the Implanted-Epi Silicon 3D-Spherical Electrode Detector, is proposed in this work. Epitaxial and ion implantation processes can be used in this new detector, allowing bowl-shaped electrodes to penetrate the silicon completely. The distance between the bowl cathode and the central collection electrode is basically the same, thus the total depletion voltage of Implanted-Epi Silicon 3D-Spherical Electrode Detectors is no longer directively correlated with the thickness of the silicon wafer, but only related to the electrode spacing. In this work, we model the device physics of this new structure and use a simulation program to conduct a systematic 3D simulation of its electrical characteristics, including electric potential and electric field distributions, electron concentration profile, leakage current, and capacitance, and compare it to the traditional 3D detectors. The theoretical and simulation study found that the internal electric potential of the new detector was smooth and no potential saddle point was found. The electric field is also uniform, and there is no zero field and a low electric field area. Compared with the traditional silicon 3D electrode detectors, the full depletion voltage is greatly reduced and the charge collection efficiency is improved. As a large electrode spacing (up to 500 μm) can be realized in the Implanted-Epi Silicon 3D-Spherical Electrode Detector thanks to their advantage of a greatly reduced full depletion voltage, detectors with large pixel cells (and thus small dead volume) can be developed for applications in photon science (X-ray, among others).
Traditional pixel detectors are neatly arranged rectangular or square electrodes that cover almost the entire surface. Large electrode areas lead to high capacitance, and capacitance is the primary factor affecting detector noise. A large noise signal will reduce detector detection performance and the system S/N ratio. We have designed a spiral ring electrode silicon detector cell with n-type silicon bulk and systematically studied its electrical properties, including electric potential distribution, electric field distribution, electron concentration distribution, leakage current, full depletion voltage, and detector capacitance. It has been verified that the spiral ring electrode silicon detector has a smaller capacitance than the traditional detector and a smaller depletion voltage compared with the previously designed structures such as the inner circle broom-shaped structure. At the same time, high position resolution pixel detectors can be made by the array of these detector cells.
